Should I be concerned? I woke up and she had puked near the bed, not much, just some wet cat food, no fur ball or anything. She's acting completely normal otherwise, running around being crazy like normal, her poop is normal, eating the same amount... I've noticed sometimes after eating she makes a puking noise if she's eaten then became really excited and started jumping about...

But this would've happened sometime during the night. And she came straight back to bed after and went to sleep otherwise she would've woken me if something was really wrong.

Is it anything to be worried about? It's the first time she's ever done it. She's 17 weeks old.

just keep an eye on her - if she starts acting strangely, it'll be vet time.
seriously - mine toss practically unchewed food fairly frequently [of course, i have 5]. as long as everyone's acting normally, & i can see kibble pieces, i don't get too concerned.
if it's completely liquified, happens several times during a day or 2, or someone's acting 'off', that's when i call the vet.

My Tuffy ate the string off the cat dancer toy before I could catch him, and puked it up 2 days later in a nice little coil on the hard wood floor. I was very happy to see it come back up

Puke is just part of our life with 4 cats. No one has given up hairballs yet though.

A cat who pukes once in a while is not a big deal, if it happens alot, then you can worry.
