you need to do is fast the animal for 24 hours. It really isn’t hard on the animal - just us!. Don’t let them beg you out of some treats! It’s necessary to let their system clear whatever caused the problem in the first place by not putting more in. Keep lots of water available through out this time. If they gulp water and then vomit it all back up, give ice cubes instead. This will limit the amount of water they can get at one time.

Once the animal has fasted for a day, they should have their system cleaned out and you can very slowly bring them back up to a normal eating schedule. Just start out slow. And keep the foods bland at first. Try some cooked rice with boiled chicken or cottage cheese. You can slowly mix back in the regular food within a couple of days. Adding digestive enzymes to the food will greatly help in digestion thereafter.

A chronic upset stomach can many times be a sign of intolerance or allergy to a food. Natural diets free of preservatives and substandard ingredients can go a long way to curing an animal of persistent nausea and vomiting
