Cat sick 2 days after being neutered

Evening all,

I'm posting here because I'm at my wits' end.

Basically, my cat, Oseille, was neutered last Friday, the 12th of July. Everything was fine when we got home, until he started being sick during the night.

It's now Sunday, and he's still throwing up whatever he eats. He hasn't drunk any water all day, either.

What should I do? Is this normal after being neutered? Could the change in food be a factor? The vet told me it's not 'normal' but nothing to be too alarmed about.

I'm looking forward to hearing from you all,

Have a lovely evening!!

    That’s the thing – he’s behaving totally normally!! He’s playing, looking for cuddles, and running around all over the place. It’s just that he’s throwing up whatever he eats, and he hasn’t touched his water today.

    With this heat he needs to be drinking, especially as cats aren't big drinkers at the best of times. It’s definitely safer to see the vet tomorrow; don’t wait until the vet finds his condition alarming, especially as they're already saying it's not normal.

    Otherwise, how’s he behaving? Is he keeping to himself or playing with you, walking normally..?

    No, that’s not normal. If he’s young and doesn’t have any underlying health issues, he should be bouncing back much faster than that.

    A trip to the vet is definitely needed. If he’s vomiting and hasn't touched his water, his condition could go downhill quite quickly, unfortunately...

    Get him there tomorrow morning; it might be nothing serious, but you really need to get it checked out.
