I think my 14-15 year old kitty has stomach acid. Since I can't afford to take her to the vet for diagnosis (and that's not something they can easily diagnose anyway), I hope what I've found on the internet helps. So far, baby food on a raised surface is helping. Though she'd like more, I'm giving her stomach a chance to adjust to her eating again.
You could stop by your vet (if he/she is close by) and pick up some c/d or i/d canned food. The i/d is good for gastrointestional issues. It might help ease your kitty's stomach. One can costs us $1.75 each (they're not big cans, though).
(The c/d is for bladder issues, but it's still soft food and our cats seem to love it -- it's soothing compared to dry, hard food. We only give these cans whenever there's something going on, otherwise they have dry. So if your cat is used to dry food, maybe one of these would help.)
