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?

He is drinking lots of water (in fact, he insists). I'll have to ask WG (the cat box man, really, I have a good deal with him) if he's peeing. I think he is though.

It's not a hairball. He's not, er. hawking it up, there's no fur in the mix. That's what has me worried.

Drinking more water than normal is a sign of several things including diabetes - combined with the vomiting, could be something going on there. Probably should have some bloodwork done and check for fever.

Well, he just went to the vet a month or two ago and got a clean bill of health, and drinking more water than usual doesn't seem too surprising since it's been so hot this past week. Hmm.
