<DIV>Richard, how long ago did you move? If it was very recently, he may
be having an anxiety reaction. Perhaps he is not yet fully comfortable
with the move. I would suggest putting him on a very bland diet (at less
than half his usual amount) for a few days until his tummy settles down.
Canned food is usually considered bland, or you might try something as simple as
rice cooked in chicken broth. Try to not make a big deal</DIV>
<DIV>of his vomiting, so far as he is concerned--in other words, not much
sympathy when he throws up, but lots of love and petting when he seems to be
feeling good. After two or three day on the bland diet, gradually add some
of his regular food and see if he tolerates it. Sometimes several very
small meals a day instead of the usual amount once or twice a day will
help. Also, be sure he has something familiar from your former home to
sleep or snuggle with.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Of course, if he continues throwing up, find a vet--surely someone near you
can recommend one. There are meds that can help with a nervous tummy for a
few days. Or you may want to rule out things like a tummy virus or
gastritis.</DIV>
