Not sure where else to inquire about this, but i got hime from wirk and gave my cats some shrimp temptations. I rarely ever give them treats, but i figured why not. Nini was hesitant about them at first but ate 3-4, then she started to make puke sounds and puked a bit. Only the treats and some bile came out, and she seems to have stopped.

Did she have an allergic reaction? She seems to be relatively fine now, maybe a bit sluggish. In the year that i have had her this is only the second time she has puked, and the first time was maybe a month ago.

How old is your cat? Did the treats come up whole? One of my cats is just a glutton and eats too fast some times. Also in my experience cats throw up more as they age.

My understanding of histamine reactions is that vomiting is not one of them. However I am not educated on this topic.

Yeah, they were all whole amd she is eating her regular food now. I dod a search that said puking up temptations was pretty common for cats.

I think it's the shape. They're small enough to swallow without chewing but the corners can irritate kitty insides.
