If Tink is vomiting, I would not let her have any food or water as this may lead to more vomiting and quicken dehydration. Because she is so small it will take long for dehydration to set it. The lethargy and vomiting can be a sign of diet change, infection, pancreatitis, or even stress induced if there has been any changes. I would take her to the vet this evening to have some blood work done to find out the source of her sudden symptoms.
