Cherie, you are there, we're not. If you're concerned about the vomiting, then by all means call your vet. From what I remember about your posts, you have a good vet that would be understanding of your concern. It's always better to err on the side of caution. It's so much better to find out our fears are unfounded, rather than wait and see. Call your vet and tell her (?) what's going on and get her opinion. We're just throwing out suggestions based on what's happened to us. What you went through with Snowball was horrendous. I don't blame you a bit for being cautious.

I would tend to agree that it is hairballs, but, this in not the kind of vomit you get with hairballs and Tigger has never been prone to hairballss....but what it seems like is that I am blowing the vomiting out of proportion, because noone seems to think I should get the vet involved.
Since Amber was diagnosed with FeLV I have been watching closer than normal.
Thank you all for the advice.

    Sounds like a hairball vomiter. I have one. He vomits after
    eating. He
    also tends to eat too fast and I have to separate him from the
    other cats so
    he will slow down.

    However, 99% of the problem was resolved when I changed to Eagle
    Pack food.
    The problem was worse on wellness and Innova. He has not thrown up
    once on
    Eagle. I don't miss the cleanups. I do know that Eagle Pack does
    not work
    with every cat but the company tested their formulas on cats with
    hairball
    vomiting problems with success. I don't even use their hairball
    formula.
    I use the Holistic Select and it works just fine. I have not had one
    hairball from any cat (9 total cats) since I started the food.
