She's indoor cat, 13, has HCM (dx Dec 2019) and now one of her kidneys is 'borderline'.
Chronic problem with vomiting and I'm so fed up with checking every room and floor surface, not to mention anxious about her health and the costs each time we visit the vet.
However, the most recent time I hoiked her into her cat carrier and drove her, howling and wailing (her, not me) to the surgery the vet suggested chicken and rice for her tummy. Did bloods etc, found nothing sinister except the kidney thing. Gave some Omeprazole which I was able to successfully get down her throat the first two days but not after that, no way was she having that.
Fantastic - I've been giving her Applaws chicken and rice in broth. I found it after extensive internet searches because obviously there's no better way to spend my time. She's been eating it for 2 weeks and not only does she LIKE IT (rare) but she hasn't vomitted. Hooray because over the years my debit card has graced the checkouts of many online cat food emporiums.
However, I've realised that at the same the same time I held back giving her kibble (IAMS Senior) which she quite likes but would always vomit it back up; that's obviously what's making her sick then, I thought.
But then I discovered that the Applaws wet food is complementary and the Internet says she also needs a dry food with all the added goodies. I do hope you're still with me.
So I found Applaws dry food and bought a small packet (online because of course none of these things are available in, like, an actual shop(. Which she ate some of this morning...................and vomitted back up.
My question to the litter box is this
Shall I try dampening down the kibble with a bit of boiled water and mush it up do you reckon? Obligatory photo attached.
TY.
