beatrice_otter: Radek Zelenka--sometimes what you need is a scruffy man with a flashlight (Scruffy man with flashlight)
I am worried because my cat has now thrown up six times in 24 hours.  She has not been outside in the last week, and I can't find anything inside that she could have gotten into.  Aside from throwing up, she seems normal--she is neither more nor less cuddly than normal, for example, and while she is usually a very sedentary cat she doesn't seem to be any more so than normal.  Is this something I should be worrying about?  Should I be taking her to the vet tomorrow?

The only thing that has changed is her food; about a week ago I switched from Purina Cat Chow Complete to Purina Outdoor Cat Chow.  But a) that was a week ago and b) she's had the Outdoor Chow before; which one I get depends mostly on which one they have in stock, the local grocery store being very small.  I didn't transition her from one to the other (taper off one and gradually add in from the new one), but then I never have before and it wasn't a problem; is that the problem now, or something more serious?

I think I need to clean my cat's litterbox more often.  Stella misses the box occasionally, and Google tells me this means that she is not comfortable with her litterbox, and either it needs deeper litter or it needs to be cleaned more often.

I hate cleaning the litterbox, so I try to get away with doing it as seldom as possible.  But cleaning up cat piss that missed the box is way worse.
