So I have been through it with little Boo here. A few days ago she vomited in scary, extreme projectile fashion - a yellow fluid combined with some water. She did this repeatedly with less discharge each time until the last time it was only the size of a quarter. I got advice from a friend of mine who is a vet's assistant to restrict her food and

I am glad Boo is feeling a bit better :D

She is, thank goodness. Thanks, doll!

I get very nervous when they start hiding away in awkward places. Poor old girl, I'm so glad she's feeling better and will be thinking of her.

It's great the shots have helped. When Jake was ill, my vet said that nausea often means cats don't make it, because they stop eating and refuse to start again. He had a theory they start associating nausea with eating, so eating becomes bad.

What was good about this episode was that she was not eating her food when she got sick. It was not a result of ingesting a portion of her catfood. This was kind of a random stomach event. She has started eating again so that is good.

aww poor kitty, I hope she's feeling better. keeping her ( and you) in my thoughts.

my dog did get a hold of the butter.. he didn't finish the whole thing but at least half of it.. he didn't vomit though bt he had the flew all night, which is just ... ewwww.

It would have been better if it had been the butter as it would have cleared out of her system pretty fast. And yes, that is icky.

aww...sweet Boo. I didn't know she was 19.

[phyncke]

Yeah...she is getting on there. I got her in Feb-March 1994. Right when I moved in here. Amazing.

Will see. Her kidney function numbers were not very good. Will have to see.
Thanks, boo.
