It sounds like she is having some gastrointestinal problems today. It is always best to seek veterinary care in this instance. However if that isn’t possible today then I would with hold food (not water) for the next several hours and then try small amounts of a bland diet made with boiled chicken and rice. If the vomiting continues she needs to be evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet coach.
