Cat keeps throwing up
My oldest furbaby, Furby, is going to be 11 in February. For the last
6-7 months he's been having problems that the vet can't seem to resolve. He gets a short hacking cough, like he's got an allergy or post-nasal drip. This triggers his gag reflex and he throws up. The doc started him on "allergy" shots but they just don't seem to work. He's not retaining the calories or nutrition he needs and is getting skinnier and skinnier. I'm really worried about him. The vet did tests and says he can't find anything wrong. Nothing wrong with his thyroid, etc. Now, he's always had "drippy eye". I have the same thing and it's because of my sinuses. Could that just be getting worse and now his sinuses are dripping inside, causing him the hacking cough that triggers his gag reflex? Poor baby can''s seem to keep his food down for long. Any ideas on how can I stop it? Is there a decongestant for cats? The vet's at a loss and I can't afford any more visits for awhille anyway. CS |
