I have three cats who always throw up their food. They each throw it up at least twice a week. I thought it was because they were eating to fast. Am I right?

How long has this been going on? If it's a recent thing, I would get them in to the vet pronto to rule out any sudden sickness or poisoning.

Otherwise, keep trying them on healthy, natural foods, preferably half dry food and half raw food.

Half the stuff in the stores these days is absolute junk - Purina Cat Chow, Nine Lives, Dad's, Sophisticat, Friskies, Fancy Feast, The GoodLife Recipe - they are full of dyes and corn. Read my take on pet food on this site by checking out the food reviews for Authority Harvest-Baked and Kibbles n' Bits - this is true for all processed pet foods.

Your cats may be quesy from the change in diet, but fresh food will do wonders for their system.

Good luck with your kitties!

One of our cats will barf if he drinks a lot of water right after he eats--We take his water bowl away while he's eating for about 20 minutes in the morning--that's the time he usually tosses his cookies --He eats pretty fast.The incidents have reduced tremendously!!

My cat use to do that, when I fed her commercial food. Now I have switched her to all natural organic food, from a health food store for animals, and it has stopped. I know with my sensitive stomached cat, it was the commercial food. Anyway its bad for them.
