This is the same vet who when I took Cali in last year because she ate the large bottom piece of a latex toy and was throwing up. He did xrays and said that I fed her too much her stomach was too full and she had spine problems. I said she hasn't eaten since the day before and she eats small meals. I decided to just take her home and watch her. Next morning she pooped out this large piece of latex, I couldn't believe she was able to pass it and was fine!! I feel with the money we spend on them and how much they mean to us the vets need to listen. My regular vet is great. I agree I would go back to your old vet. Also, Cali has severe itching and after blood tests (all negative for allergies and food elimination diet they put her on Atopica and she she has been great, so maybe look into that if nothing else works.

What's Atopica?
