Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Mojo! Possible causes of vomiting and not eating are: intestinal parasites, foreign body (something is stuck requiring surgery), viral or bacterial infections, food allergy/intolerance, ate something gross that is upsetting his stomach, toxin ingestion, pancreatitis, kidney of liver failure and many other things. I would with hold water for 6 hrs and if there is no more vomiting offer small amounts of water and ice chips. Then in 12 hrs, if no vomiting, offer a bland diet of either boiled chicken or hamburger with rice as small frequent meals. Feed 1 cup per 20 pounds per day. If at anytime he vomits or won’t eat he should see your Vet. I hope this helps and I wish Mojo a speedy recovery!
