Re: bulimic cat????


I think I would try feeding them separately for a while.

Re: bulimic cat????


think it is cause he a piggy eyes bigger than the belly, and its not possible to feed them seperatly, as we are in quite a small flat, with a dog that cant hunt out un-eaten cat food a mile off ill just have to try n fatten reggie up a bit, mind u they had quite a dust up today and reggie was the instigator to that one, was surprised.
they are now sleeping like good boys side by side.

Cats don't suffer from bulimia. I would say he's either throwing up because he eats too much too quickly, or another medical reason. A good tip is to raise their food dish up a bit on a brick or similar, and if he eats too quickly you could try putting a ball in there to slow him down.
