My 8 week old cat is on a food called blue buffalo-kitten brand you probably have heard its a great food.But ever since she went into heat she has started to throw up her food and it is almost always not digested.Should I change her food? I dont know whats wrong.

Hi
well going into heat wouldn't cause a cat to throw up its food.

It is more likely that she is has either got a tummy bug , a hairball or is eating too quickly. All of these reasons could be the cause.

There are many causes of cat vomiting please see my page here for more on this issue

If it continues for more than a few days i would recommend that you take her to see a vet to have her checked out to be on the safe side.

you could contact your cat food company just to make sure that there has not been a recall on their food.

best wishes Kate
