It's concerning that your cat is experiencing vomiting after her vaccinations. While mild reactions can occur, persistent vomiting may indicate something more serious.
- Monitor for additional symptoms such as lethargy or diarrhea
- Ensure your cat stays hydrated
- Contact your vet if vomiting persists beyond 24 hours or worsens
Vaccinations can sometimes cause mild side effects in cats, such as slight fever, lethargy, or decreased appetite. However, persistent vomiting is not typical and should be taken seriously. It's important to monitor your cat for any additional signs of distress or signs of an allergic reaction, like swelling or difficulty breathing.
If this is an emergency, please seek immediate veterinary care.
