Vomit question

Fatboy has been throwing up his food lately.  It's not  a lot.  It's like he's eaten too much and the excess is coming out.  We give him one cup and a quarter of Honest Kitchen.  We don't play with him for at least 2 hours after he's eaten but ever since he started on the new box (ran out of food last tuesday) he's been throwing up just a little every hour or so.  And he is still a pooping machine. 

When is it time to worry??

Maybe smaller portions through out the day?

Is he gulping the food down like he is ravinous?  maybe  instead of  1.25 cups twice a day make it .  3/4 (or so) cup  3 times a day?

Lastly, have you kept up on the food recall? could it be? I hope it isnt, but you did mention 'started a new box'

oh and I LOVE my calendar this month ! with ole FAT BOY's face plastered all over it :) :) :)

How is Fatboy today?  Is he

How is Fatboy today?  Is he able to hold down water? If he is and is acting normal I think it would be ok to give it a day or two

He is doing ok. Drinking water more than he used to.

And he is acting normal.  I always wonder about the consistency with HK because it either upsets his tummy (gas) or plugs him up.  This time around it's making him throw up.  Guess he will just have to do.  it's the only food we've found that doesn't make him break out in hives or give him ear gunk galore.

Poor guy.  I think I remember reading about all the different foods Fatboy has tried.  Hope his stomach settles down soon

maybe feed less...

I feed kibby about half a cup, 4 times a day.. she use to have puking bile issues if her tummy got too empty!

Yes he's tried a lot. Kibble just doesn't agree with him AT ALL

So this is why we've headed the raw route.  Tonight when my husband made the food, it smelled fishy.  It's supposed to be chicken. So I'm not sure.
