Hi
Your pet probably has bacterial gastroenteritis – like food poisoning in humans. As long as your pet is otherwise bright, then starve for 24 hrs (plenty of water available) and then offer a bland diet for about 3 days (such as cooked chicken and boiled rice). If the symptoms do not disappear or your pet seems to be getting worse then make an appointment at your local vet ASAP – you will probably be given a course of antibiotics.
Good luck
