When Kuma was a baby he had irritable bowel and a deformed pyloric sphincter. Whenver he would eat, the food would sit in his stomach and he would throw up from it sitting there. Now that his pyloris has normalized (before it was a slit, now its a normal hole...) he still throws up when he eats too fast. Some kitties just eat too much or too fast and up it comes. He has been on the i/d which helped his ibd but not his vomiting. Have you thought about doing a bips series of x-rays? Thats how they found out about Kuma's pyloris, it took forever for the bips (barium chips) to pass and he almost had to have surgery. Since you work for a vet this might be possible cost wise (normally it's several hundred for a bips series because they take several x-rays to see how the food travels) and I think it might be a good thing to try. Hope she gets better!
