Vomiting
Rocky is 14 months old with no previous health issues.
On Sunday evening he vomitted without any warning and it was clear there were a couple of undigested meals.
Yesterday he ate his breakfast and after a slow start he ate his meals as normal.
During the night I knew he wasnt right as he was resless and licking his lips as though going to be sick but he wasnt.
This morning he vomited again and there was last night meal there. He is now lay quiet and out of sorts.
I havent changed his food and his routine is the same and I cant think what has caused the vomiting.
Any thoughts of what to do or what could be the issue?

Re: Vomiting
Could he may have eaten something, that you were unaware of. I would pop him along to vets if no better, is he drinking ok?

Re: Vomiting
Has he not managed to digest any food since Sunday? I would pop to the vets, in case he's swallowed something he shouldnt. There could be a blockage?

Re: Vomiting
As long as he is drinking he can go a few days without eating a huge meal. He has already gone a day or so so i would book an appointment at the Vets. If he starts eating and all is fine overnight you can always cancel the vet.
As already mentioned, it could be a blockage of some sort if he is still not able to eat.
Let us know how he gets on.

Re: Vomiting
He may well have picked up something that shouldn't to eat, did you try starving him for 24 hours ? then giving a light meal of scrambled egg and see how it goes. Obviously if no change then a vet visit would be in order.

Re: Vomiting
I starved Rocky for 24 hrs from yesterday morning until this morning.
I gave him scrambled egg and then his usual meals today and he appears fine and back to normal. I hope this has rectified the problem.
Starving him for 24 hrs was awful, I felt really bad not feeding him but it had to be done.
