Vomitting 5 week old kitten

Sent to Cat Experts August 27, 2006 6:07 a.m.

I have a new 5 week old kitten and he keeps throwing up his food several hours after eating. I have tried dry food as well as wet food. the first time he throws the food up it is usually undigested and then a couple hours later he throws up again and it's just liquid. i'm not sure if I should be feeding him something different so he won't throw up. any suggestions?

How long has this been going on? Does he throw up after EVERY meal or just once in a while? Has he been dewormed?
