Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. With your description I am concerned that Cookie is not interested in eating and is trying to vomit. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine Cookie so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I would definitely consider having abdominal x-rays taken to ensure that this is not from something Cookie ate (string, stuffing, toy, etc.). I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
