WHITE gum mean EMERGANCY! a healthy cat should have bright pink gums! White gums in Cats mean SICK and EMERGANCY TRIP to the VET or EMERGANCY ANIMALS!

POTENTIAL EMERGENCY CONCERNS: The above symptoms could indicate dietary intolerance, food allergies, gastrointestinal upset, liver disease, kidney disease, Inflammatory Bowel Disease, pancreatitis, intestinal obstruction, peritonitis, intestinal parasites, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, infectious disease, etc, and should warrant a visit with your vet or an emergency vet ASAP.Male cat 3 years maybe, vomits a liquid tinged with lite red color. shelter cat, and had been ckd by vet?
That's blood you're seeing %26amp; it can't be good!





Checked by what vet? The overworked %26amp; under paid shelter vet that barely has time to deal with emergencies?


Take him to your own personal vet or, if that's what you did, find a new vet ASAP.


There's too many possibilities/ issues to address in this type of forum.


You need to ask about the food you're feeding, worming your cat, etc.
could be hairballs, not vomit, however red indicates blood, i'd get a second opinion from a different vet and if you can bring in a sample of his stool and vomit to be tested.
