Drooling and vomiting are both signs compatible with a gastritis, an inflammation of the stomach very likely related to dietary indiscretion/intoxication from something Minie has eaten. If signs are particularly persistent and do not settle down a check up would be absolutely needed as medical treatment could resolve them.
