Penelope ate maybe a teaspoon of peanut butter it was on a piece of celery. Then about 20 minutes later she started vomiting . She drank some water but she threw it back up. She vomited 3 times.

Poor girl! . withhold food for 12 hours then offer her boiled boneless chicken and rice every 6 hours in small portions. if she is eating and not vomiting, continue with this diet for 2 days. After 2 days, you can put her back gradually on her normal food. If she continues vomiting or is not eating, take her to the vet to get treatment.
