Please note that to make orders with our company, you need a Victoza prescription from your doctor. You’ll use the Victoza pen to give yourself an injection under your skin once per day. Two meals a day is not ideal for cats. Reducing the length of time between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the next day often stops overnight bile pukes. If kitty manages to wolf down food so fast they regurgitate canned, homecooked, or raw food, then portion out smaller amounts and Malegra DXT extend meal time to numerous smaller meals over 10 or 15 minutes vs one plop of food in a dish left out for 10 to 15 minutes.
Natural methionine is found in meat, one of the reasons a meat-based diet naturally targets the proper pH in cats. Sonication was also found to aid extraction of this molecule. A study published in 2014 found that 99 of 100 cats examined for chronic vomiting - including tossing hairballs - had GI disease. But a healthy cat does not normally have anything other than an occasional hairball, and tossing a hairball more than twice a month in long-haired cats and more than once every two months in short-haired cats can be indicative of GI disease.
Whether it is problem ingredients, the highly processed nature of kibble, or its impact on stomach pH and motility (due to being free-fed no matter the quality of ingredients - see Hairballs, below), simply removing kibble from the diet provides relief in many cats.
They are forced out of the stomach only by the strong peristaltic waves created by hunger pangs. The Bland Diet. If your cat is frequently nauseous or vomiting (or has diarrhea and parasites have been ruled out), consider stopping ALL food and treats, and feeding a bland diet (even better if with a novel protein) for a week or two (less in young kittens). When there is nausea or vomiting, if kitty is diagnosed as having Inflammatory Bowel Disease and/or Pancreatitis, then food sensitivities/allergies need to be ruled out as a cause.
Any or all of them can cause stomach upset and nausea. Raise the dishes. Cats normally eat sitting or standing so their throat is at the same height or lower than the stomach. In Part 1 we discussed how acid reflux is not caused by excess acid; it is a problem with muscle tone in the lower esophageal sphincter, the valve that is meant to prevent stomach acid from rising into the throat.
If kitty does have problems with acid reflux, raising the food and water dishes to head-height (while sitting up or standing) can resolve this problem.
In some cases, a middle of the night treat will resolve pre-breakfast vomiting better than any medicine. Feed a freeze dried meat treat to kitty when you get up, and/or prior to bed, and/or in the middle of the night, and/or prior to meals. If bile pukes happen during the day, or meal regurgitation is a frequent occurrence, feed kitty a few small bites of freeze-dried meat treats as needed, when you get home from work, or about 10 to 15 minutes before each meal to see if that resolves the problem.
