Question
my cat of 4 years was just spayed (Monday) and is on an antibiotic for a urinary infection..is it normal for her to throw up her food after she eats..she has never done this before..

Answer
Hi Tracy,
Having a cat spayed will not cause her to throw up. Either she is having a reaction to the antibiotic, or she could have a hairball.  If she does this after every meal, then you need to have her checked to rule out a blockage. If she only does it ever now and then, then that's pretty normal.

God Bless,
Becky

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.
