Default cat vomitting

Hello everyone:
Well I took my cat into my vet tonight. Still, they could not find a thing
wrong with him. They could see he was dehydrated so they did an IV, barely
got any blood out of him to do run tests, they ran a leukemia and another
test and both negative. He had no idea, cause he had no fever, nothing. So,
he went ahead and treated with antibiotics again and said if he doesn't perk
up in a day or two to bring him back and they will try to take more blood and
run more tests.
So, you see it still lies a mystery on what is wrong with my cat.
I honestly wonder if he doesn't have something wrong with his kidneys, maybe
kidney stones? I picked up a pamphlet and honestly he has all but one
symptom of kidney disease. The Dr just didn't think towards that???? I am
leaning towards it, but more like stones cause he had white stuff on his
bottom, made it look like crystals?

Anyway, my kitty being sick is still a mystery. He gave me antibiotics, and
my cat started perking up this morning anyhow, and gave the Dr quite a
problem, but he still is not my kitty back to normal by any means.

I'll keep you posted.

Many thanks

Thank you Phil, you gave me a more to the point answer and I was along the
lines of an obstruction too, but the emergency vet is the one I took him too

My friend had to take her cat to the vet a few weeks ago from vomiting all of
the time. The vet took and x-ray and didn't see anything. He told her he
has to open her up to see for sure what is going on. He ran all of the test
too. anyway the vet noticed a huge ball of string (almost like fishing
line) in it instines and the string was wrapped aroung the back of her tounge!
He wouldn't of had to open the poor little kitty up if he would have checked
the tounge but she is ok now. She could have gotten this from thread form a
bed spread or couch or blanket. Did your vet check for something like that?
Keep us updated.
