Up Chucking Kitty Cat

[Lazy Farmer]

I have a male cat about 13 y/o. Having a serious problem vomiting. Several times a day. Switched his food from grain related ingredients like suggestions from experts and it helped for a couple days.. some. I am at a loss and trying to avoid another costly fee from a veterinarian.
Although the cost of cleaners and paper towels may excede the vet fee coming some day soon.
Comments welcome and thant you in advance.

I have an older, 15yo, cat that did the same thing. I switched to sensitive stomach food from Petco which has helped quite a bit.

We switched to a brand that has meat by product vs grains. Was told that cats are carnivorous and grains will effect older cats in adverse ways.
Before we switched to the expensive meat protein brand, we were slightly Browning ground beef and scrambled eggs and the vomiting subsided to a min.
Hairballs are not an issue I believe as well.
I will look into your brand. Is it possible to snap a pic of it?

Could be diabetes. It's common in older cats and not treatable by anything but insulin. Even then, it's pretty hit and miss. Does he ever throw up just liquid and is it ever tinged green? Xx

First the color of the food. Then white foam a little later once his stomach is empty

I put the food in an air tight bin to keep it fresh so I don't have the bag, But here's a pic transferred from the Petco sight. My cat likes chicken so this is the chicken flavor grain fee sensitive stomach food I feed her.

First of all, I would feed him baby food or cooked ground meat rather than a commercial food. Secondly, feel his abdomen. Are there any lumps or masses in there that shouldn't be? I once had an older cat that threw up all the time and it turned out she had a cancerous tumor. There are so many things that could be causing the problem you describe, from liver failure, to diabetes, to kidney failure, to pancreatitis (sp) to simple food intolerance or indigestion.
