Just got back from the vet. She's not sure what caused the problem. She gave him fluids under his skin and said that this will keep him hydrated through tomorrow. She suspects he has eaten something that is disagreeable. She said to not even try to get him to eat or drink other than a few drops of honey until his stomach has healed. Maybe start him on pedialyte tomorrow.

She also gave him a shot to try to control the vomiting. He hasn't been sick in over an hour. Praying he's through the worst of it. She said there was no blood in his stool. No fever. She felt that he was pretty active considering his state of dehydration. She said it was very good that he was seen tonight because sometimes in situations like this it can get bad very quickly. She gave him antibiotics and meds for nausea. Thanks so much for all of the advice. I am so glad I took him tonight.
