Hello there, I'm really sorry to hear about your kitty's tummy troubles. Chronic vomiting in cats, especially with a history of pancreatitis, can be concerning and quite stressful for both of you. Pancreatitis involves inflammation of the pancreas, which can cause issues with digestion and vomiting.
There are a few possible causes for chronic vomiting in your cat. It could be related to their diet, such as food intolerance or allergies. Sometimes even hairballs can cause problems. Other possible causes include inflammatory bowel disease, liver issues, or even lymphoma.
At home, try feeding smaller, more frequent meals, which can be gentler on the stomach. Sticking to a bland, low-fat diet might also help if pancreatitis is involved. Make sure your cat stays hydrated, as vomiting can lead to dehydration. You can provide fresh water and even consider wet food if they tolerate it well.
Keep an eye out for signs like lethargy, weight loss, changes in appetite, or blood in the vomit, as these may indicate a more serious problem. If you notice these, it's essential to seek veterinary care quickly.
It sounds like a good time to have a more in-depth discussion with a vet. Consider booking a video consult with Dial A Vet so we can delve deeper into your cat's condition and find the best way to help them feel better.
