It sounds like he probably has developed a touch of gastritis due to the pancake annoying his stomach. If the vomiting continues I would attend the vet in case the fat level in the pancake has caused pancreatitis. However, it should settle within the next 24 hours. Keep him on bland food with unlimited water.
