After a leukemia vaccination, some cats may experience a mild reaction, such as vomiting. It's the body's way of adjusting to the new vaccine. Keep an eye on her symptoms to ensure they don't develop into something more severe. Make sure she has access to fresh water, and try to keep her calm and comfortable. If she continues to vomit or if other symptoms arise, it's best to consult with a veterinarian to ensure there isn't a more serious issue at play.
