i know this was an old post, but i had to respond. Now that we are leaning toward allergies, i printed lists of all ingredients in all 4 foods he has eaten since i got him, and trying to narrow down what it could be. Most of the foods had same ingredients for most part, but the canned food (he didnt throw up on) does not have corn or corn gluten meal or corn meal...ALL other 3 had one of those in it. Thats my best lead right now, and if not ill have to do more research. The Purina he was on didnt have any of t he same ingredients other than vitamins that were similar to the other 3 foods, but that food made him throw up WORSE..so that could have been corn or could have been the salmon (main ingredient) being to powerful for him..so many options and they all take so much time...vet said it could take 6-8 wks to see full results once the allergen is identified and removed!!! prob will do the allergen test thing to steer us in direction if the corn thing doesnt work. Im going to blend up the dry food hes on now first thou, and see if that works. If it does, it may not be a food allergen after all. His problem is scratching and nasal drip i believe (i think that causes the sticky throw up)
