My cat is on CD Urinary care(dry) food and he is frequently puking, a few times a week. Sometimes it is food and other times it's dark liquid. He is 12yo and he in on this food due to a urinary blockage years ago.

That is a good food. Often cats eat too fast and vomit up semi digested food. I recommend switching to C/D canned or giving both canned and dry. Often with canned food there will be less vomiting and the food will still be effective to prevent crystals.
