Is your cat regurgitating his food?

Generally, regurgitation of food without other distinct signs is not a cause for alarm. However, if it is accompanied by other signs such as diarrhea, lethargy, fever, or passing of blood, it could indicate a number of health problems, some of which may be serious and should be brought to the attention of the veterinarian as soon as possible.

Frequents bouts of vomiting are quit common for some cats, especially Siamese and other Oriental cats. If your kitty has eaten something, you will see the evidence as he regurgitates food. This may also mean a trip to the vet because there is still the possibility that parts of the ingested items may still be in the stomach or intestine, and may be obstructing the passageway of food.

Cats instinctively dispose of the inedible parts of their prey (claws, fur, beak, etc.) by regurgitation. They are not really ill but are trying to get rid of the indigestible items.
