If he is behaving normally otherwise, try withholding food for 12-24 hours. Allow small amounts of water or unflavored PediaLyte. Resume feeding a bland diet in small, frequent amounts. Begin with 1 tablespoon of food every hour and gradually increase the amount if there is no vomiting. Feed bland until there has been no vomiting for 48 hours. Transition slowly to the regular diet afterwards. There are no medications you can give at home nor is it recommended to medicate a pet without the advice of your veterinarian. If vomiting persists, see your veterinarian. If he develops lethargy, diarrhea, loss of appetite or abdominal pain see your veterinarian.
