Withhold all food for 24 hours. Allow small amounts of water or an unflavored electrolyte replacement fluid. Resume feeding a bland diet in small, frequent amounts until vomiting resolves and the stool is normal. Transition slowly to the regular diet afterwards. See your veterinarian if the vomiting or diarrhea do not resolve or if Willow becomes lethargic, stops eating or exhibits signs of abdominal pain.
