Cat Vomiting Light Brown Liquid

[frank412]

I have a 6yr old male dom shorthair.  He has been vomiting for about 1 1/2 days, however, he hasn't vomited that I have seen since this afternoon.  He does nibble at his food and is drinking water.  The weather has been nice enough for him to sit on our screened in porch last week.  I am wondering if it's possible that he just has a virus.  He is also taking medication for a possible bladder infection.  I don't know if this could be causing the distress, as well.  Do I need to take him right away to the doctor, or could I keep my appointment for 2 days from now?

Thanks.

Hi, I agree w/ Opus!  I'm willing to bet that the meds for the bladder infection is causing a stomach upset.  I've seen antibiotics cause vomiting and diarrhea w/ my cats.

Try not to worry too much, and see what the vet has to say.  The vet might be willing to change the antibiotic, or give you another med to ease his tummy troubles.

Let us know what the vet says.

hi Frank, phone your Vet immediately in the morning, do not give the morning meds until you have talked to them, its NOT normal for a cat to be vomiting like this and could well be caused by the medication, the Vet should prescribe a change that would cause this side effect.
what is he taking?
good luck♥
