Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Vomiting and inappetence can be observed with gastroenteritis, dietary indiscretion, food sensitivity and obstruction or other conditions. She is quite young so hopefully it is something easily treated. I recommend that you have her evaluated by your veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Likely diagnostics to be performed include abdominal imaging and general bloodwork. Treatment would depend on the actual cause of this. Good luck and have a good night!
