Kitty's sick.

[icarus]

My kitty's thrown up three times in the last 24 hours.

It's not hairballs, there's no clumps of fur. wildernessguru thought maybe some of his wet food had gone bad (we feed him the kind without the tons of preservatives, etc.) and I've noticed Fuzzhead hasn't been eating it right away in this hot weather. But this morning he threw up some dry food and a treat WG fed him last night (virtually unchewed), and WG told me that he threw up earlier this am, too.

What could be wrong? Cat lovers, tartanshell -- any theories?

Regarding dehydration, you can also do the pinch test with the fur. Since their skin is so loose, you can pinch and pull up a bit of it, and if the cat is dehydrated, it will stay up in the pinch instead of flattening out. Or it will flatten much more slowly.

It also makes your cat look at you like you're nuts.
