What do you feed them? If they eat dry food, try changing to good quality
canned food. Cats that go ourdoors are also more prone to this because
eating grass can encourage vomiting, so you might want to try keeping them
indoors. That will also be safer for them! Also, do you have indoor
plants? If so, is there any sign they are chewing on/eating on any of the
plants? Try removing them, or look around the house for other things they
might be chewing on if you do not have plants (string or ribbon, for
example).

Cats do not eat their own vomit, as dogs often do.

I just posted a reply, but here is one more suggestion: Try giving them
some Laxative or similar product a couple of times a week. They could be
trying to bring up fur, even you do not see signs of that. Did your vet
palpate to look for possible signs of furballs?

Siamese? I always seemed to find the Siamese threw up a lot.

Are they eating too fast? My Pickles was gobbling down her food too fast
and when I fed her a spoonful at a time she retained her food. Eventually
she was able to handle all her food at once.

I had the same problem with one of my cats. My vet tested her for allergies
(it's a blood test that they send off for analysis) and it turned out she
was allergic to several foods. Now that we've changed to a food she isn't
allergic to, she rarely vomits. There were two types of allergy tests, one
for food and one for "other" stuff. I had both done at once, but just
testing for food is cheaper. I guarantee if that's it, the test will pay
for itself with the savings on cleaning supplies. She was allergic to
*mice* (of all things) as well as some of the foods, cotton, and several
other things.

Is the vomit clear liquid?

This is very interesting!

My 7 year old male cat has some Siamese in him (he's solid black) & he
gobbles his food like crazy sometimes. I've started just putting down a
thin layer of dry food in his bowl, forcing him not to grab mouthfulls at
a time. Some have suggested we even add large stones (too big to put
into his mouth) to make him slow down & eat around the rocks. We use
Friskies brand food (Chef's Blend), but we have noticed a decrese in
vomiting when we got the higher quality (more expensive) food.

This cat also has been diagnosed with a heart murmmur, too. And he's
pretty spastic.

I can use any advice you all may have on what to do about this vomiting
problem. We've spent plenty of money on carpet steamers & bottles of OXY
cleaners for the carpets!
