Cats are different from dogs

My youngest cat Henry, about two yrs old, just had his first real throwing up that didn't involve a hairball. (And he's only had a couple of those. I do keep the kids brushed.) He meowed for me to come, the same type of meow he uses when he's just pooped in the litterbox and wants it cleaned right away because it's stinky. He's quite particular.
It's amazing how a cat's reaction to throwing up, etc., can have a hint of "Oh heavens! Pardon me, I'm so embarrassed!" about it. Where a dog's reaction is typically more like, "Oh boy! Now I get to see what it tastes like the second time!"
