Cat vomiting-pooping - 15 yrs old

It could be many things (inflammatory bowel disease, lymphoma, etc).

Yes, I agree, it could be those. Has she had bloodwork? It could be something
as easily (and inexpensively) treated as hyperthyroidism but that could only be
diagnosed through bloodwork.

than human." (Loren Eisely)

I would think she might have a food allergy. Also, have you had her checked
for Bartonella, and/or cardiac issues? Often cardiac problems will cause
cats to vomit frequently. -- M9

Mommsy is 15 yrs old.
She always seem to have a sensitive stomach or vomiting issues. An
antibiotic usually helped. Now nothing helps. She was on AD for
short time, now on KD.
Vet said that liver & kidneys show deteriation due to age. Her
vomiting is smelly & so is her loose bowel movement. She doesn't
always poop in the pan.
Mommsy has a healthy appetite & acts "normal". She's alert.
If you mention a "blockage", then wouldn't she not be or would stop
eating,pooping, etc?
I'm supposed to go to vet on Mon if she doesn't stop - for an
injection to stop this. ITM, I'm giving her Hi-Vite Drops (from vet).
She's not lethargic although she never has been a playful cat. (I got
her in 1991 as a totally feral cat & was about 1-2 yrs old. Took me
about 4-5 months to domesticate her).
She's very thin - anorexic, under 5 lbs, but a bit over 4 lbs.
Any ideas? Keep in mind her age & what she should/could be put thru.

Someone sent me somewhere & I ended up reading about IBD. Mommsy has
the exact symptoms & I will be at the vet 1st thing in the a.m.
Will update.
Thanx so much for your inputs.
