If you haven't done so, have a Vet diagnose the problem. A 19 year old should not have to suffer like this. MLB |

How long has this been going on? Is she skinny? I imagine she needs bloodwork. Older cats can have all sorts of conditions, it would be impossible to guess. I know my late cat used to barf from his kidney disease and hyperthyroidism (he had that, too) also makes them very hungry and they barf a lot but there are many other reasons this could happen, too. She's quite elderly and needs to have a blood panel done. There are many things that are treatable so that you could have a few more years with her.
