Poor Ellie

Ellie has always had a sensitive tummy but it seems that as she gets older it's getting worse.  She is now known as The Puker!  We are trying out new healthier food hoping that fewer carbs will benefit her in some way.  We have noticed a change in her coat but she still pukes a lot.  We took her to the vet and paid a fortune for her to tell us "I have good news and bad news.  The good news is that we didn't find anything wrong from the tests.  The bad news is that we didn't find anything wrong with her tests."   We walked out with a medication to ease her vomiting reflex and hoped for the best.  The medication really worked so we're going to order some on-line next payday.  I hate medicating her but I don't want her to lose weight.  A couple doses a week would probably help her out.  We shall see.
I've done so much research and it seems that some kitties are just prone to vomiting and it's something we have to live with.  UGH  so not fun!  But Ellie has always been the one to eat strange things around the house.  Tim bought Elizabeth and I flowers for Valentine's day and a week later we found the greenery from the bouquet in her puke.  We always thought she was the smart one.  We may have been wrong about that!
