Can a cat vomit while she's in heat?

My little girl has just been sick. She doesn't seem unwell immediately after, but you never like to see your baby vomit. She's been in her first heat for a few days now, and I wanted to know if that could be the reason?

Thanks for your replies.

    Yeah, I'll keep an eye on her today since I'm not working at the moment, which is handy.

    And she's got a vet appointment tomorrow anyway.

    Yeah, it’s like you said, she must’ve eaten too fast! Mine does that sometimes when she’s being a total greedy guts; she gets into that position where it looks like she’s about to be sick, then she just gives a big gulp and off she goes again.

    Two minutes later, it didn't stop her from running about, playing, and starting to call for the toms again... she doesn't seem at all bothered about being sick.

    She's been sick, but no bile; she's just brought her dry food back up and it's quite compact, if you know what I mean.

    I agree with Dellys, I’m sure it’s not her being in heat. I’ve had four female cats and none of them ever threw up during their season. Is it proper sick or just a hairball? (Like clear, watery bile with some fur in it).

    Oh, there’s absolutely no risk of her being mated outside; she hardly ever goes into the garden unless she's with me and she stays right by my side. Since she’s been in season, I haven’t even given her the chance to poke her nose outside...

    Are you sure there’s no way she could have been mated by a tom from outside?

    Being in season doesn't cause vomiting, but a pregnant cat can definitely be sick.

    Mind you, she might have just been sick if she wolfed her food down too quickly.

    Maybe she just ate too fast... I wonder if that's related, it's the first time she's been sick.

    No, I don't let him unless I'm there.

    I don't think there's any connection, personally.

    Does your girl have access to the outdoors?
