Unfortunately those are very vague symptoms of illness, rather than pointing to any one thing. Vomiting, diarrhea, and refusal to eat are all signs of something ongoing such as potential GI upset, underlying illness, infections, etc, and if they continue for more than a day, should be seen by a vet to rule out more serious problems and narrow down the cause. You can try offering a bland meal of some boiled chicken, however if Oreo refuses to eat for more than a day that is considered serious and needs to be checked out. If you're having trouble affording vet care, this site may help give you some ideas to help make it affordable, otherwise trying to find a vet in your area that can look at her if symptoms continue is best: https://www.humanesociety.org/resources/having-trouble-affording-veterinary-care
