Cats keep retching and can’t vomit? It may be because cats suffer from erectile bulbs, and the erectile bulbs stimulate the gastric mucosa, so dry retching occurs. The owner can feed the cat hair cream or cat grass to help the cat excrete the erectile bulbs. In addition, it may also be because a cat has foreign objects stuck in the throat, or it may suffer from gastroenteritis, gastric ulcers, pancreatitis and other diseases, which are usually accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as mental decline and loss of appetite. When this situation occurs, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
1. Hairy bulbismus
Cats love to cleanse their bodies, so they usually lick their hair to cleanse their bodies. In addition, if the owner does not feed the cat hair cream, the hair may stick to the throat or accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract, and the cat will have symptoms of dry retching and cough. If there is a lot of hair in the gastrointestinal tract, cats may also be excreted through vomiting. Mucus and more hair can generally be found in the vomit. In this regard, the owner can feed the cat hair cream or cat grass to help the cat excrete the hair balls in the body.
2. Foreign objects in the throat
If a cat accidentally eats foreign objects such as cloth strips, bones, plastic bags, etc., the foreign objects irritate the mucosa of the throat, which will cause symptoms such as dry retching. In this regard, the owner can use his hands to open the cat's mouth to check, or touch the cat's throat, neck, etc. to see if there are any foreign objects stuck. If so, you need to take the cat to the pet hospital for an examination in time to determine the size and location of the foreign object, and see if surgery is required.
3. Causes of disease
If a cat suffers from gastroenteritis, gastric ulcers, pancreatitis and other diseases, it will also cause dry vomiting and unable to vomit, which will usually be accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as listlessness and loss of appetite. If the cat is in poor spirits, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time, and then treat it according to the examination results.
