wrong fml buddy

I feel your pain. Been there, done that. It's worse when it's the litter box.

Oh no!

How would you feel if someone yelled at you when you were puking

Better just to pick up the cat and move it to the kitchen next time.

I had to vote YDI. I mean, seriously, if someone yelled at you when you were about to vomit, would that do any good? Your poor cat. I'm sure she didn't enjoy vomiting, and being spooked at the same time sure didn't help.

I understand the concern over yelling at the cat but as an owner of two cats, who vomit as often as any cat does, you would know that fabrics get horribly stained by hairballs and such so having them throw up on tile or hardwood is much easier to clean. Maybe instead of yelling pick the cat up or scoot them away from the rug next time.

I just put a paper plate under where my cat is going to puke and then throw out.

The best thing to do if you notice the cat's about to vomit is to a shirt or similarly easily-cleanable item under his/her face

I had a very sick cat who was vomiting almost daily, and I used old flyers or newspapers, kept those handy and put them under him when he was about to get sick

I always pick up my cat and run for the door haha
