Hello there! I'm sorry to hear that your kitty isn't feeling well. Vomiting in cats can be concerning, and there are a few reasons your feline friend might be experiencing this after being given Metacam, a pain relief medication.
Cats can be sensitive to certain medications, and Metacam can sometimes cause stomach upset, leading to vomiting. It's crucial to ensure that the dosage is correct for your cat's weight and that it's given with food, as this can help reduce stomach irritation.
At home, you might try offering bland food such as boiled chicken or plain rice in small, frequent amounts to give your cat's stomach a break. Make sure there is always fresh water available to prevent dehydration, especially if your kitty has been vomiting a lot.
Keep an eye on her closely for signs of a more serious issue, such as persistent vomiting over 24 hours, lethargy, lack of appetite, or if she seems to be in pain. If any of these signs appear, it's important to seek veterinary attention promptly.
I highly recommend booking a video consult with Dial A Vet so we can discuss your kitty's current condition in more detail and ensure she's getting the care she needs. Take care, and I hope she feels better soon!

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
