Why Is Your Pet Vomiting?
Vomiting is your pet’s way of telling you something is wrong. It’s not a disease—it’s a symptom of an underlying problem that needs diagnosis.
Common causes include: eaten something toxic or inedible, sudden diet changes, infections, parasites, inflammatory bowel disease, kidney or liver disease, pancreatitis, or foreign object blockages.
Some cases resolve on their own. Others are life-threatening. If your pet is vomiting multiple times, has blood in vomit, shows signs of dehydration, or stops eating, seek emergency care immediately. When in doubt, call us. We can help you decide if your pet needs to come in right away.

Got Questions?
Is vomiting in pets always an emergency?
Not always, but it’s hard to know without a professional exam. An occasional upset stomach may be minor, but multiple episodes, blood in vomit, refusal to eat, weakness, dehydration signs, or vomiting combined with diarrhea warrant immediate care. When in doubt, call us. We can advise whether your pet needs to come in right away.
What happens during a vomiting emergency exam?
We start with a physical exam and medical history. We then use bloodwork to check organ function, digital X-rays to look for blockages, ultrasound for detailed abdominal imaging, and fecal tests if needed. This rapid diagnostic approach helps us pinpoint the cause so we can start targeted treatment fast.
What are the most serious causes of vomiting in pets?
Serious causes include foreign object blockages (life-threatening), toxin ingestion, severe infections, pancreatitis, kidney or liver disease, and hemorrhagic gastroenteritis. Any of these can deteriorate quickly. If your pet won’t stop vomiting, shows weakness, or has blood in vomit, come in immediately.
