    Any tips on helping the upset tummy of a HyperT kitty?

    Buster is vomiting about once per day - usually between 3 and 4 a.m. It is thin - usually either furry saliva (clear) or bile (yellow / brown).
    Usually does not contain any food/chunks.

    He has good appetite. A month ago, we increased his Tapazole a bit (1/4 of a pill to 3/8 of a pill) after a Free T4 test showed that he needed an increase.

    He is going to the vet Saturday a.m. for a check - can discuss the vomiting with the vet too, but I would appreciate the experience of FDMB members as well.

    HyperT's can also have excessive grooming, add that to the increased water intake and maybe that's why they vomit alot (just guessing though). My own hypert's usually vomitted up clear liquid with a little fur in it quite often.

    Talk to your vet about adding pepcid.
