Any thoughts on how I might calm her down, so that she doesn't wolf her
food and then vomit?
Well, whatever you do, don't play Copland's "Piano Variations."
Expand on that, please. I don't know that piece, but I hadn't
thought there was anything by Copland that would make a human
throw up, let alone a cat.
