What to Do If a Cat Sucks After Eating?

If you have a cat or cat, one day you will come across a prosaic problem: your cat or cat is sick after eating. This may not mean that your pet has health problems, since all cats sometimes feel sick after eating. So, what are the reasons that can lead to vomiting?

• Often, vomiting is due to the fact that the cat simply ate a lot or ate too fast, without having time to properly chew.
• Nervousness, overexcitation, stress can also lead to the cat feeling nauseous after eating.
• The most common cause of vomiting is lumps of wool in the stomach. Cats put themselves in order, licking their own hair; Naturally, it enters the stomach and is eliminated from the body by vomiting. To prevent vomiting, you need to comb the hair of your pet or pet. In addition, you can give Vaseline, which makes it easier to get rid of wool. Vaseline can be smeared simply on the paw: cats are very clean and must always pour it without residue. In addition, in specialized stores you can find special pastes based on Vaseline, which the cats eat with pleasure. In order to facilitate the disposal of hair lumps, many cats eat grass; This leads to the fact that the cat is sick after eating, but there is nothing wrong with that.
• Another common reason for the animal to vomit after eating is ingestion of an inedible thing. Often curiosity pushes a cat to eat, for example, a poisonous plant, a medicine for people or just a foreign body. Most often, this happens with curious little kittens, less often - with older cats. If you suspect that your pet has eaten something wrong, best of all, without delay, go to the veterinary clinic. Sometimes a foreign body is noticeable, that is, it sticks out from the mouth of the animal or from the rectum. Do not try to pull it out yourself, you can injure the esophagus - immediately take the cat to the doctor.
• Older animals often vomit. This may be due to the general deterioration of internal organs, or with any disease: kidney failure, liver disease, thyroid gland, feline parasites. Provided that the cat is sick after eating very often, you need to show it to the doctor.
• Sometimes you can see in the cat's vomiting of parasites, for example, worms. Intestinal parasites lead to constant vomiting, diarrhea and general weakening of the cat's body, so if you notice something that looks like white threads or rice grains in the vomit, be sure to go to the doctor with a cat who prescribes the appropriate medications. It would be superfluous for the animal to eat and drink the anthelmintic preventively.
• Chronic vomiting can indicate various problems with the gastrointestinal tract: from banal poisoning to serious illnesses, such as for example, stomach ulcers. What exactly does this symptom say, just the doctor can say.

After the cat vomited, the best thing is not to feed her for a day. In addition, you need to limit the amount of water consumed. When vomiting stops, you can give the animal a little soft, low-fat food. To feed it is necessary four times a day and only gradually it is possible to translate a cat on a habitual diet.

So, the general recommendations. You should contact the veterinarian immediately if:

• There are signs of blood in vomiting;
• The cat suffers from both vomiting and diarrhea at the same time;
• An animal tears for more than a couple of days or there is a lot of urge to vomit in a short time;
• You suspect that a cat has swallowed something that is inedible or poisonous;
• Except for vomiting, lethargy, weakness, pain, shortness of breath, cat can hardly keep on legs;
• You seem suspicious.

In any case, it's better to be safe than to waste time irrevocably.
