She might have eaten something spoiled that is causing this. withhold food for 12 hours then offer Molly boiled boneless chicken and rice every 6 hours in small portions. if she is eating and not vomiting, continue with this diet for 2 days.

After 2 days, you can put her back gradually on her normal food.

If she continues vomiting or is not eating, take her to the vet to get treatment.
