Vomiting yellow liquid can indicate bile, often seen when a cat has an empty stomach or is experiencing gastrointestinal upset. Since your cat is now lethargic and not eating, it may be a sign of a more serious condition.
- Monitor your cat for any additional symptoms such as diarrhea or lethargy.
- Ensure your cat stays hydrated by providing fresh water.
- Consider seeking veterinary advice if symptoms persist or worsen.

If your cat is repeatedly vomiting and not interested in food, it's important to watch for any other worrisome changes and consider a veterinary consultation to rule out any underlying conditions.
If this is an emergency, please seek immediate veterinary care.
