My cat is starting to puke!!!?

Question

About two days ago, I heard my cat put something in his mouth which sounded like plastic. When my son and I tried to get it from him, he ran, swallowed whatever it was, and has been throwing up at least twice a day for 2 days. Late last night about 1am, my husband found a spot where he puked again in which he found a 3-inch piece of tape attached to a long string which seems to have been the carpet--so I am assuming that's what came up. Do you think he should be okay now, because I'm worried to death and at this present time, we cannot afford $500+ in medical bills. PLEASE HELP!!

Answer 1

Take him to a vet and why do you have a cat if you cant afford one? If you or your husband were sick would you continue to throw up and feel like c**p? NO YOU'D SEE A DOCTOR!!! If you were truely worried youd go to the vet

Answer 2

If he is an inside/outside cat and he swallowed something like that it could of upset his stomach. When cats stomachs are upset they eat grass or other plants to make them throw up. If it doesn't stop in a couple more days, you should bring him to the vet. It shouldn't be to expensive to find out what he ate. You shouldn't have to get x-rays of his stomach or anything like that. The most the vet would do is give him some medicine like Ipecac that would make him throw up.
