Default Cat Being Sick

My cat doesn't want to eat and keeps being sick, but it seemed to only
be saliva until tonight, when it looked like there was some fur in it.
She's lost a lot of weight as well...we moved her food outside
recently due to our toddler trying to eat it...could it be a
territorial thing (there are also two new cats who have just moved in
next door, maybe they've had a go at their food).

Any ideas

Many thanks

Have you seen a vet?? This could be serious or it could be furballs or it
could be something that is getting way serious. Go to a vet.

She needs to be seen by the vet. It is not a territorial thing, but a
medical one.

I suggest you have your cat seen by the vet and in the mean time, bring her
food back inside and have a little chat with the toddler. Now's a good time
to teach the meaning of the word "no" :c)

Hope all turns out well for your cat!

Could be simply a huge case of hairballs, or could be an illness, or a combo
of the two. She needs a vet appt., especially considering that she's lost
weight.

This is NOT furballs, or "territory".
Get the cat to a vet NOW.
NEVER wait till they have lost a "lot" of weight!
