Lucky vomited last night. This morning I woke up to find she had vomited 2 more times. All of the vomit was yellow fluid. She is drinking lots of water, she is still running, playing annoying her brother Gus. The vet is closed today. I am going to keep an eye on her, if she gets any worse I will call the emergency number.

Maybe cook some chicken up for her meals today in case her stomach is a bit sensitive?

I've had one do that and the vet found nothing but a slight raise in temperature - which could have been from stress from the car ride.

I'd call the vet if things don't subside, but I think the general rule of thumb is to withhold food and drink (at least from an adult cat) for 24 hours and then reintroduce food, if all else seems well and the vomiting doesn't go on for more than 24 hours and it's not like an hourly vomit. And I've seen the cooked chicken breast and white rice menu also an introductory food.

That said, I know I'm a nervous momma and would be calling the vet to ask what do do!

Maybe she ate a bug? I think Dante ate a spider and we had two episodes of vomiting - then everything seemed ok.

Lucky hasn't vomited since I got up this morning. She is busy hiding pony o's in my shoes. She is drinking a lot but still hasn't eaten. I am hoping the vomiting is over.
