Dog and cat vomiting can be caused by problems from within the stomach and intestines (called the Gastrointestinal or GI tract) and by problems from outside the GI tract, such as by kidney disease.
Common causes of vomiting are allergies, illness, cancer, infections, drugs, parasites, plants, and poisons. Vomiting is also caused by incidents of overeating, foreign bodies, bloat (GDV or gastric dilatation volvulus), and constipation.
