I'm sorry to hear Aries isn't doing well! Unfortunately, vomiting like this can be due to a number of things, which is why a vet visit is important. Issues such as a hairball or parasites can cause vomiting, along with functional issues that may be causing problems with digestion. Other issues can include food allergies (male cats tend to be allergic to ingredients such as fish or chicken in their foods) or even an issue with how often you are feeding Aries. Smaller meals more often can sometimes help vomiting if it's every morning, especially if Aries goes all night without any food. Offering a small meal right before bed (or a treat) can sometimes keep the stomach full enough to keep it from getting too empty and causing vomiting. However, since this has been prolonged and there are so many potential causes, a vet visit is always best.
