Why does a cat scream when throwing up?

Cats do not usually scream when vomiting. However, if a cat screams while vomiting, it is likely due to one or more of the following reasons:

- Pain: Vomiting can be painful for cats, especially if they are vomiting frequently or forcefully. The pain may cause them to scream or yowl in distress.

- Nausea: Nausea is another common symptom of vomiting, and it can also cause cats to vocalize. Nausea can be caused by a variety of factors, such as eating too quickly, eating spoiled food, or motion sickness.

- Stress: Vomiting can also be stressful for cats, and stress can lead to vocalization. Stress can be caused by a variety of factors, such as changes in routine, travel, or being around unfamiliar people or animals.

If your cat is screaming when vomiting, it is important to take them to the veterinarian to rule out any underlying medical conditions. Your veterinarian will be able to determine the cause of your cat's vomiting and recommend the best treatment.
