My cat was prescribed Omeprazole from the vet. I am having a hard time administering the capsules. Can the capsules be opened and sprinkled on food? Does it have a bad taste?

My cat is vomiting about twice a day. He has been on several different foods in the last few months while the vet tried to figure out his itchy skin. He was put on 2 hydrolyzed foods, both of which caused him to vomit. His skin didn’t improve so the vet told me to put him back on his prior limited ingredient diet. Each time his diet changes he’s fine for about a week then the vomiting starts usually twice a day - the middle of the night and the middle of the day. He eats wet and dry food but has recently been resistant to the wet food. What might be causing his vomiting?

I’ve been to numerous vets about my cats fluctuating vomiting and weight loss and they said acid reflux. I put probiotics with enzymes in her wet food but she is a picky eater. I use to keep her hard food out so she can nibble on when she doesn’t want wet food but then she pukes and the wet food dries out. What is the best hard food for reflux?

My cat has times (much more rarely now than in the past) when she smacks her lips and swallows repeatedly. It can go on for a few minutes. (Today it went away when I gave her a plate of food). It looks like she has hiccups between the swallowing. She has IBD. Could she have GERD, too?

Steve the cat was diagnosed with gastro lymphoma, for which he is takes steroids and chemo (has been for past 6 months). Last month he has thrown up a few times, vet thought maybe acid reflux from the drugs and thought I should try prilosec (which I did for a week, but his appetite took a nose dive, so I took him off). He's also started sneezing a lot. Two questions, read that prilosec can suppress appetite and also prevent absorption of drugs and B12 (so important for his survival!) - is this true? Question 2: could acid reflux cause sneezing??

My cat has been throwing up very small amounts of clear foamy liquid or just white foam for maybe 36 hours, & sometimes nothing. It's not constant, but has happened at least 10 times or more - one of those 3. She is eating fine, mostly at meal times - wet & dry food. She is also acting normal. I treated her for hairballs twice yesterday, with no results.

I have a female adult tabby. She has had too much gas with all grainy foods I have tried. She's been on a grain-free wet and dry food diet for months now since that worked the best (so far) but there are still some issues. She what appears to be "burping" quite frequently and swallows afterward so I guess that's heartburn maybe. She already eats small portions throughout the day. She has medium stage gingivitis and two broken teeth and her at times drooling is assumed to be the result fo that but I'm wondering if it could be about her diet instead, or if she might have acid reflux. In the last bloodwork she also had abnormally low WBC 2,98, and a tad high RBC, and high PLT. She had no clinical symptoms the bloodwork was just done to check if it was OK to vaccinate her that day. In last January she was hospitalized with high fever, lethargy, not eating, and change in voice after not eating for 3-4 days. Her bilirubin was high in the bloodwork. The vet went between FIP and gallstones and when she responded to the antibiotics came to the conclusion on gallstones over her getting better and bloodwork solely. (No ultrasound or x-rays or urine/stool test.)

Hi, I'm very frightneed for my cat. She's 4yrs Old & I think she has acid reflux. Very aloof attitude, doesn't act the same. Makes a peculiar sound, as if she's going to throw up, but doesn't, Irritable. Is their a possible home remedy for this condition? Or should I call or take her to the Vet? Thank You!

took my cat to vet today, since last night shes been dry heaving like every 30/40mins , no vomiting, still eating, we did get another cat 5 days ago and the older cat has been over eating(getting into the kittens food) Vet said her lungs sound clear, No fever, pressed her belly and didnt seem bothered, so to basically monitor her for the next 24hrs, she said it could be acid reflux.. Now im noticing that she has her lower jaw slightly open with a look of wanted to vomit but doesnt.. she is also very mood not wanting to be bothered at all
