Hi Cassandra,
It isn't unusual for a cat with Fatty Liver disease to vomit after
some meals, of course it isn't what we want and sometimes smaller, more

Food is very very important. Cats cannot go without food for very long
without running the risk of feline hepatic lipidosis which is what you
do NOT want to have to deal with on top of everything else. You must
