When Vomiting Spells Trouble

Gack . . . gack . . . gack. Your first thought as you're awakened at 3 a.m.: "Oh, no! Gotta get Ginger off the bed before . . ." Too late. Your second thought? "Why is Ginger throwing up?" There are numerous reasons for feline vomiting. Trouble is, the cause could be as benign as a hairball that needs dislodging or as dangerous as an intestinal obstruction. An occasional bout of vomiting is often nothing to worry about. But acute or chronic vomiting -- especially if accompanied by fever, lethargy, poor appetite, diarrhea, or constipation -- may indicate a serious underlying condition, giving you ample reason to call your vet. Immediately.
