Hello there, I'm sorry to hear your cat is going through this. Throwing up blood can be pretty concerning, and I’m here to help guide you through what might be happening and what steps to take next.
There are a few reasons your cat might be vomiting blood. It could be as simple as something irritating his stomach lining, perhaps from ingesting something sharp or toxic. However, it could also be due to more serious issues like ulcers, liver disease, or even certain types of infections and cancers. Monitoring other symptoms such as lethargy, changes in appetite, or additional vomiting can also give us more clues.
At home, ensure your cat has access to fresh water to prevent dehydration. You might want to withhold food for 12-24 hours to allow his stomach to settle, then offer bland food like boiled chicken or rice.
It’s crucial to watch for signs of a serious issue: continued vomiting, large amounts of blood, weakness, pale gums, or any difficulty breathing. These symptoms mean you should seek veterinary care immediately.
I recommend booking a video consultation with us at Dial A Vet so we can look into this further and guide you on the best course of action. We're here to help.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
