It is concerning that Peanut has been throwing up a few times a day for the past few days because that isn't normal. Given he's been throwing up for a few days, I would have him seen by a vet to diagnose the cause of the vomiting. Causes may include Gi illness, foreign body, kidney disease, liver disease, or cancer among others. Once a cause is found, the vet can discuss treatment options with you.
