I am so sorry to hear that Coco is not well! I would also be concerned if she is vomiting and not feeling well. It is possible it is related to her intact status- uterine infections, for example, can cause you to be very ill. It is also possible that it is unrelated- viruses, dietary indiscretion and foreign bodies are also examples of common causes of vomiting. It would be safest to take her in and have an exam done and possibly other tests to see if there is an underlying cause that can be remedied. I hope it is nothing too serious!
