Hunter fell into the bath tub with me last night and I had Dr Teals Espom salt with eucalyptus/spearmint in the water. He seemed okay until 5am this morning when he vomitted. But hes energetic and otherwise seems normal. Will he be okay or should I take him into a vet?

I would just keep an eye on him as the ingestion of the bath water may have caused a bit of GI upset. You can pick up his food for a few hours and then offer a bland diet of boiled chicken and rice to help soothe minor GI upset. If the vomiting continues, he can't keep anything down, becomes lethargic, or has bloody stool or vomit, then seeking veterinary care ASAP is best to make sure there isn't something more serious ongoing.
