Hi,

We are the owner of two cats, one a 13 year old Tortoise Shell, and the other an 11 year old Black. The 13 year old occasionally vomits after eating her food, but after reading other posts on this board, I have found some good tips that might stop that

The 11 year old is a different problem. Up until 2 or 3 weeks ago, she was always a big eater. Eating fast, eating anything, and occasionally trying to push the other cat out of the way to get her food. But now she is hardly eating at all. When she does eat, she merely take a couple of mouth-fulls and then walks away. So far we have thought that it might be the heat (it is VERY hot here in Germany at the moment, and has been for over a month), or even too much hair in her stomach (which we have tried to help with certain types of dried cat food for Seniors and malt-extract), but she is still off her food.

any hints or tips? We spoke to our Vet, and she suggested it might be the heat as well, and did not seem very concerned.

Thanks in advance
