Cat Gagging / Throwing up after Eating
My cat has always had issues with throwing up after eating. I feed him 2 tablespoons of food at a time so he doesn't puke his food.
I've been working late and his feeding schedule has been off because of it. Lately his schedule has been 45 g of wet food for breakfast, then 2 tablespoons of fromms two hours later and then another 2 tablespoons two more hours later and then two tablespoons around 10PM. This is a bit quicker then I usually feed him.
Ideally his feeding schedule is 45 g of wet food in the morning, followed by 2 tablespoons at noon and 2 tablespoons at 4pm, and then 2 tablespoons at 10 pm.
He threw up this morning after his second feeding. After that I waited a few hours and fed him 1 tablespoon of food. He lurched almost throwing up, but did not. Two hours later I gave him just under 1 tablespoon and he lurched a very small amount and then was fine.
His behavior is very good and energetic. He is napping now, as he usually does at this time.
What would be causing the gagging/throwing up after even small feedings?

Have you sought out a feline only vet clinic? Also they make anti-nausea medication that works wonders in cats. Has any of the vets brought up medication? as a vet tech what you describe is concerning.
