It is most likely some kind of metabolic disease process. The symptom of vomiting can be a symptom of any number of problems. A cat should be dewormed when it is a kitten at least twice. That is according to the CDC. As an adult a cat should have a fecal stool test at least once yearly to test for worms. Just a random deworming is un-necessary if the test results are negative for internal parasites. It is most likely you pet has an intestinal disorder, but it in important to know what your cat vomits. If it is undigested food, it is not considered vomiting, that is regurgitation. Caused by eating to fast. My cat does this and I changed his diet to Hills T/D diet. They have to chew this food, it comes in large kibble and therefore he eats slower. This really helped a lot with his regurgitation. But if your pet is truly vomiting, IE saliva, bile, liquid, partially digested food, then a disease process is occurring. Have him checked out by your vet and Good luck

My turtle will only eat blood worms and has a soft underbelly what do i do?
He will not eat the pellets nor freeze dried anything and will only eat blood worms. I feel that he is not getting the proper vitamins. He is only 4-5 months old. Im in need of help.

The soft shell is normal for young turtles. It will harden up in time, given proper diet. I suggest starting by slipping some small earthworms into the water. They are great for stimulating turtles to hunt and feed and are a good source of protein and calcium. Other good sources are bait fishes and liver you dust in bone meal.

Avout 7-10 crickets every two -three days, don’t worry if he won;’t eat them all sometimes they eat more on their own time. Just leave them in the cage. Dust the crickets with calcium right b4 u feed then gutlaod them about 24 hours b4 u feed them.
You can also feed the gecko some type of worm when you want but prob best if you don’t feed her worms more then twice a week. You can dust and gutlaod these too. Im glad you are trying to feed your gecko the best you can!
