For the last 3 nights my cat has gotten sick sometime during the night. The expelled stuff in question is almost odorless. While still wet it has exactly the same properties as clay. When dry it turns to fine powder.
The cats diet has been the same for the last year. I doubt it litter as we use the clumping kind and the cat has never eaten it before.
Not lumpy or hairy. As mentioned it has the consistency of natural clay. And yes it is more white than anything - more so than the pic indicates. Especially when dry. But when dry it turns powdery.
That does look like cat food after it’s been in the stomach a little while … I’d guess an intestinal blockage perhaps from a furball … or Mittens has the kitty flu …
We have another cat with a finicky tummy, any little thing will cause her to throw up her food so I’m pretty familiar with what thrown up food looks like (all the cats eat the same food). This stuff isn’t it, it is weird. It’s like reconstituted chalk or something.
If he does it again tonight it’s off to the vet this weekend.
Good of you to take a picture of it. Make sure to show that to the vet.
Have had to take a recently adopted dog to emergency vet 100 miles away twice in the last year. He always finds something that he shouldn’t eat. He always works it out. No surgerys or anything. The problem was really hydration. Wouldn’t drink. So in goes the IV until it works it’s way out. Gloves and socks so far as we can tell.
My cat was eating it’s clumping litter before it died. Clumping litter looks like chalk when it gets wet and then dries out.
If it is eating it’s litter, it’s serious - usually some type of intestinal blockage.
