my cat made gagging/choking noises earlier tonight and since then has been drinking lots of water - is he ok?
Author: admin9 Sep
My kitten(4 months old) made gagging noises earlier on not long after i had disassembled a tv cabinet and he had destroyed a cat toy stuffed with polystyrene, since then he has been drinking loads of water but no more gagging noises. should i be concerned he has swallowed something he shouldn’t and seek assistance or is more likely down to the fact he ate a lot of dry food today (rather than whiskas kitten pouches) and was merely dehydrated?
It could be any number of things, from a stuck fur ball to him swallowing something to him having eaten too much dry food and being dehydrated. The best thing to do is to take him to the vet as if he has swallowed something he shoudln’t have it could be stuck around something important.
Good Luck and I hope this helps

fur ball?

My cat does this all the time. We thought it was hairballs but he threw up his food. Cats do that for two reasons. One might be because he doesnt like his food or just normal or sick?

Nothing to worry about. Probably a furrball

Sounds like he is trying to get something out of his throat. You might take him to a vet. Keep a close eye on him till you can atleast call a Vet and ask. Good luck

My guess is he has a fur ball and is trying to get rid of it. I feed my cat nothing but dry food. Switch to
Purina Kitten Chow. It is smaller in size and
easier to digest. Cats usually will not swallow any thing made of metal of cotton stuffing. It doesn’t taste good. If you have a yard let your kitten eat
some grass. This will help her with digestion and even help her dislodge a fur ball. It is natures way
for settling upset tummies in animals. If your kitty starts to become lethargic and acts like it is in pain then call a vet asap.

we’re no vet

Apply a little vaseline petroleum jelly to your cuts nose. The cat will lick off the jelly , lubricating any hair or obstraction in it’s stomach so it can pass easily through the digestive system.

EXCUSE ME PEOPLE - please don’t say "nothing to worry about" when we have NO way of knowing if this kitten is OK or not. Get that kitten to a VET. It very well could have eaten some of that polystyrene which could cause a blockage in its intestine to lead to DEATH.
How can you ask this on here? We’re NOT VETS nor can we see your kitten. Please be responsible and GET IT TO A VET!

Just a hairball don’t worry

Sounds like he may have either some of the suffering or a fur ball stuck, if he still doing it now take him to the vets as they will be able to get it out for him.

If your kitten is weeing and pooping normally, then that is evidence that things are moving as usual and there is no blockage or anything untoward. Gagging and some vomiting is pretty normal behaviour in cats; it’s what they do. If at all concerned though, then seek professional advice from a vet. Better to err on the side of caution where kittens are concerned.

probably a fur ball if it looks like he,s been sick and what he,s brought up is wet fur its mainly because they lick themselves constantly if thats all it is its nothing to worry about if not see your vet
