My kitten vomited bile twice in 24 hours but seems normal. What to do?

Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 6 months and 14 days old | 10.5 lbs

My cat has vomited bile twice in the last 24 hours. The first time was a good amount, this last time was very very little. He is acting like a normal kitten other than that. He hasn’t eaten a foreign object either, just normal food. What do I do?

If it has only been twice and this last time was only a small amount, then I would likely wait and see. If there is any further vomiting through the night then I recommend taking him in tomorrow. Our pets are very talented at eating things they are not supposed to without us knowing about it, so I never take for granted the possibility. There are many reasons for vomiting, and if it resolves on its own, then nothing further is necessary.
