Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. With Spooner being 12 years of age and vomiting excessively, I would recommend having him examined by a veterinarian and have his blood tested to see if there are any abnormalities that need to be addressed. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further Please take the time to mark this question as helpful or not as it helps us to improve on the quality of our answers to other pet owners. Thank you kindly!
