Question
I have a siamese that I trapped in a hav-a-heart trap. Thought she was ferel but she isn't. After eating she vomits often. I heard that this is the most common complaint with siamese owners. I also have heard that there is a food formulated for siamese. Do you know these two things to be true or not? Do you know the name of food and have you used it> Thanks a bunch.

Answer
Hi Joann,

Siamese are great cats, I love them.  Vomiting is NOT a common complaint of siamese owners exclusively. Many cats will do that.   My two, not siamese, do it somtimes.  I tend to think they over-eat.   I never heard of a special food for siamese.  They are just like any other cat,  just a specific breed.

Expertise

I am not a breeder,so please direct any breeding and/or birthing questions to an "expert" that is. I love all cats but my favorites are the Rex and Siamese. I used to show Cornish Rex as a hobby but have not been able to for a few years. Right now I have three Siamese and one Cornish Rex. As a former veterinarian assistant, I can help you with general healthcare issues. Being a cat owner for years, I will be glad to answer any behaviour and/or nutrition questions too. Please remember, I am NOT a Veterinarian, so if your kitty is seriously ill, please do not hesitate to contact a Vet.
