Answer
Hi Sally!
First, I am NOT a doctor, just a volunteer that can hopefully help you.  You need to leave off the cows milk. It may upset her stomach. Vomiting one time is nothing to worry about, but if she continually does it, you will want to see your Vet.  Cats will often vomit, sometimes because of hairballs.  I think she is probably fine, just keep an eye on her. If she continues to vomit, you may want to call the breeder and let her know, but also call your Vet.
God bless!
