LOL

My youngest cat, Abby, is like that sometimes. But I figured out why she does it!!

She is usually a nibbler and will only eat dry food, but instead of eating a healthy portion all at once, she prefers to have a few bites here and there during the day.
Occasionally I will hear her at the food dish practically inhaling the entire bowl of food!  Then a few minutes later she promptly regurgetates it on the floor, followed by another throw up somewhere else, which usually consists of a hairball!  So her occasional Bulemic episodes are her way of getting rid of hair balls.

I changed her to Purina Cat Chow hairball remedy and her instances of vomiting up her food have decreased probably by 75% or more. I used to find piles of expelled food every couple of days, now it's less than weekly.
