What are the causes and treatment methods of cat vomiting?

Cats have the habit of licking their fur to clean themselves. In the process of licking hair, it is inevitable that some cat hair will be swallowed into the cat's stomach. When the cat hair accumulates to a certain amount, the cat will excrete the cat hair by vomiting. Vomiting is usually thick strips of hair or cat hair with mucus. This phenomenon is called "hair spitting", which is a means for cats to regulate their intestines and stomach. If the cat accidentally eats a small amount of foreign objects (such as thread and a small amount of plastic, etc.). ), they can also discharge foreign bodies in the body by this means.

Treatment: In this case, parents generally don't have to worry. Cats can recover after vomiting, but if they have loss of appetite, they can be fed lactase (or yeast tablets, Jianwei Xiaoshi tablets, mother feeding), which can strengthen the stomach and help digestion.

Note: If the cat has retching symptoms, but the mental state is good, it may be that the hairball cannot be spit out smoothly. At this time, you can also give the cat some catgrass (such as barley grass and green bristlegrass) or hair cream to help the cat spit out hairballs.

Reason two: cats are very sensitive to the stomach.

Cat's gastrointestinal sensitivity is also one of the reasons why cats vomit. When the food used by cats has no appetite, there will be symptoms of vomiting and even diarrhea. Please refer to the article for details.

Reason 3: Acute gastroenteritis.

Cat vomiting is one of the most important symptoms of acute gastroenteritis, which is mainly caused by cats eating spoiled and inappropriate food. Vomiting is generally accompanied by diarrhea, fever and listlessness. Vomiting is mostly persistent, and the vomit is food residue and gastric juice. In severe cases, the vomit is yellow-green or brown.

Treatment: when this symptom occurs, the owner should first review whether he has fed the cat inappropriate food.
