| Is Hershey sick? Many of you know that Hershey has CT and he is on meds for it. He has been breathing better so we are putting the surgery on hold. When I came home today I noticed vomit on the floor. It looked like bile with a tiny bit of food in it. He is not acting sick at all--he has been eating, drinking water and playing. It looks like it only happened once. I have noticed this a few times since he started the meds. Could it be a reaction to the meds or is he possibly sick? He is on Tussigon and Theophylline. |

| He proably has an upset tummy from the meds since you said it started then. Do you give him the meds with his meals or does he free feed?

| I give him the meds in a pill pocket. I have to trick him or he won't take them. I leave dry food out so he can eat when he is hungry. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | It may be the medicine. When my dtr was younger they gave her an asthma medicine, I think it was Theophylline or one similar and she threw up a couple of times. She only took it a few times when she came down with a cold. I would call the vet and ask if it could be one of the meds. I hope it doesn't happen again.

| I would try getting him to eat something substantial before giving the pills if it was me. Maybe a bit of canned food or something if he won't eat his kibble that way.
