There is nothing specific that I would recommend doing until the vet arrives. You can offer a small amount of water but I would not give any food in case it triggers Bruno to vomit again. Keep him somewhere that is comfortably warm. Hopefully the veterinarian will be able to determine what has caused Bruno's seizure and vomiting in the next few hours.
