Question
QUESTION: I know cats vomit, but how much is "normal" and what causes it? Anything besides hairballs? Thanks.

ANSWER: Hi Catherine,  HOW often is your cat vomiting?  How old is your cat and what breed?
Also, what food are you feeding?

QUESTION: Every few weeks it seems,he vomits a couple of times a day for 2-3 days. He's 4 years old, a long-haired tabby of some mixed heritage (I rescued him). He eats a 1/2 can of tuna based canned cat food and 1/3 cup of dry food (Taste of the Wild, a no preservatives, natural food).

Answer
How about feeding him the Taste of the Wild canned cat food along with the same dry food.
Also, add 1/4 of a teaspoon of olive oil to one meal per day....

Hope that helps.
