    Oh my gosh, please take her to a vet ASAP. She sounds like she has a virus and if she is throwing up everything she is eating then she probably IS starving!!! She is old and need veterinary care right away.

    This can be a very, very bad sign, as it could be a sign of cancer. It may not be, but that would be a definite consideration. This cat needs to see the vet immediately and be evaluated. I am nust going to assume that you have ruled out a hair ball. It could be that she has developed a sensitive stomach, or that she has developed an intolerance to the specific food you are feeding her. But because it definitely could be cancer, you really must get her to the vet and have this checked out and the sooner the better.

    Make an appointment with the vet. I had a cat that had similar problems. She ended up having a thyroid problem and had to be put on a medication to fix it. It could be several other things too. Only way to find out for sure is to take her to the vet.

    Take her to the vet. At her age, she will dehydrate and lose weight very quickly. You need to figure out the problem before this causes serious damage.
