Thanks everyone for your feedback and suggestions!  I appreciate it!
   
  I've had Slink on L-Lysine for a couple months now (twice a day in his food) 
along with Vitamin C and probiotics.  I also feed him Innova Evo and Wellness 
(only because he likes variety and gets bored and stops eating the Evo if 
that's all I give him).  I'm thinking I may swtich to raw in the near 
future...when I have enough money to get started.
   
  Thanks again!  He seems to be doing fine now.  The only thing I've noticed 
lately is that when he purrs he sounds congested (but his breathing is normal 
and he's not coughing).  So I don't know if that's just a weird purring thing 
or...?  Any ideas?
   
  Hope you and your babies are all doing well!

  Hi Marissa,

I don't think the vomit is a big deal, unless it's happening 
regularly. Ember ate too much of her food too fast a few weeks ago, 
and she barfed in a similar fashion to what you're describing. I 
haven't seen it happen since. Regarding the sneezing, the same thing 
went through my mind that went through Wendy's: Lysine. It's cheap 
and has a good reputation with colds/URIs in FeLV+ kitties... 
actually, kitties in general. I don't give Ember Lysine right now, 
but if she were to start sneezing, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Regarding food, you might check out Innova EVO. It's supposedly "the 
closest thing to feeding raw." Ember does pretty well with it. There 
are a few other brands with natural/organic ingredients that have 
more nutritional value than your average corn-based cat food. Felidae 
might be worth checking out, and I've also used Chicken Soup for the 
Cat Lover's Soul. It's more widely available here than most of the 
other good stuff.

I hope Slinky feels better soon.


Lance
