Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered
My cat has been super lethargic and has been sleeping for the past 2 days. He has also had very little appetite and has been dry heaving throughout the night, sometimes producing little amounts of bile. He does drink bits of water whenever I put the water bowl below his mouth. This all occurred when it was raining heavily and he didn't return till later the evening, wet. He also caught a vole a few days ago but didn't eat it. Currently on a waiting list for the vet to ring me - any advice?

It sounds as Biji is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet the first chance you get, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better.
