Hello, thank you for your question about Hylos.
Lack of appetite and vomiting can be caused by a number of different underlying causes. It can be secondary to systemic problems such as liver/kidney disease or due to a GI problem such as infection/inflammation. Since Hylos has been vomiting for some time now and he is not interested in eating food I would be very concerned that he is becoming dehydrated. I would recommend having him seen by a veterinarian so that they can examine him and discuss the need for additional diagnostics and treatments.
Hope this helps!
