Re: been sick


Could he have eaten a fly?? I know that my lot are always chasing them round at the moment and eating them and I'm sure it can't be good for their tummies!!

Other than that - I can't suggest anything else - sorry.

Re: been sick


Mmmm - could be a fly. Or maybe a furball/hair in tummy.
As long as they drink they will survive one incidence of vomiting with no problem.
If the coughs get worse you may have to reassess in a day or two

Re: been sick


Not to be too gross, but flies don't seem to upset stomachs.. Misty was a superb fly catcher, always ate them, and was never bothered by it...lived to 19 1/2. But the cough does sort of worry me.....

Re: been sick


Sounds just like my cats' reaction to a hairball. Just keep an eye on them in case there are any other symptoms that worry you.
