Hi, my cat is a healthy cat, slightly overweight for his size but barely, he never pukes, maybe once or twice, tonight however he meowed and started retching, he puked once, then again, he was okay for a few minutes, and then he vomited another two times, one very little puke, one slightly more but still not much, he's okay now but we're worried due to the fact that it happened 4 times. We gave him new dental treats recently, we haven't been precise with the amount always, could he be reacting?

Yes, it could be the new dental treats causing Cloud to vomit. The addition of a new food, even treats, can cause stomach upset. I can give you a home remedy for him to see if that helps. Withhold food until the morning, then feed a bland diet of boiled white meat chicken (no bones) in small amounts several times a day for a couple of days. Then slowly add back in his normal diet. If the vomiting continues in the absence of food, he refuses to eat the bland diet, he vomits the bland diet, develops diarrhea, stops drinking water, starts vomiting water, or becomes very lethargic, he will need to see a vet right away. I hope this helps!
