Title: URGENT
Post by: Linda (Bengalbabe) on January 02, 2007, 20:09:33 PM

I've come home from work tonight and 3 bengal boys are vomiting -not huge amounts but clear frothy liquid.  I've checked around the house to see what could be the cause and the only thing I can find is a basin with some water and washing up liquid (daughter must have left).  Couple of questions, could this be what's causing it and how serious is this?  Lubo is a bit under the weather, Lenny not too bad but poor Loki is not looking great at all.

aww Linda, im sorry to hear about your boys, maybe they've been drinking the water and the washing up liquid has upset their stomachs, Daisy has done a similar thing but its been bubble bath and she threw up for a while but was fine, Hope they feel better soon, sorry im not much help

Sending lots of love and hugs to the boys and hope that it's nothing too serious.  Hopefully copious amounts of water will flush out anything nasty

could it be recent application of flea treatment. My cats reacted to it in the same way as they tried to groom eachother too soon after application.

Hope all goes well.

How are the boys today Linda ?

Hope all is well.

Have you got any new plants recently ? Poinsettas for example can be poisonous to cats.
