I would recommend seeing a veterinarian. While a change in diet can sometimes cause some mild stomach upset I'm worried that Fudge won't eat at all. Vomiting can be a sign of many different diseases ranging from intestinal obstruction to pancreatitis to kidney disease. The vet might recommend blood work or x-rays.
