Hello there! I'm really sorry to hear that your senior cat is having such a tough time. At 15 years old, it's not uncommon for cats to start showing some health issues. The vomiting could be due to several reasons, especially if there hasn’t been any change in his day-to-day routine or diet.
One possibility is that he's experiencing gastrointestinal issues, which could range from mild inflammation to more serious conditions like kidney disease or hyperthyroidism. Another potential cause could be stress, which, even without a clear trigger, can sometimes affect older cats more significantly.
For at-home care, ensure he stays hydrated and consider offering smaller, more frequent meals, which can be easier on his stomach. Keeping an eye on him for any additional symptoms like diarrhea, lethargy, or weight loss is important. These could all indicate a more serious underlying issue that needs addressing.
If his vomiting persists for more than a couple of days, or if he seems in distress, it’s time to take action. I’d recommend booking a video consult with us at Dial A Vet so we can dive deeper into his symptoms and guide you with the appropriate next steps. We're here to help!
