Cat throwing up

Question
My cat is aprox 14yrs old.  She has been eating
my plant and throwing up approx 3-4 daily.  Some
of it is solid and some of it is just liquid.  Also
noticed her outside ear has no more hair.  What is
wrong? Why is she throwing up multiple times daily?


Answer
Hi there!  If your cat is eating a house plant and vomiting, this may be a toxicity.  The hair loss could be due to an allergy from the plant.  I would definately recommend taking her to your veterinarian for a check up to be sure she is okay, and put the plant in a place where she won't be able to get to it.
I hope this helps!
