My cat throwed up and shitted everywhere in the kitchen today. She sleept alot and always sitt with me, which she doesnt do so often before. We are thinkng to wait 2-3 days before bringing her to vet. Because we changed her food latley and thought it was a better one. But we changed back to the old one now and see if there will be any improvement.

A quick change in food can definitely upset your cat's stomach. It's recommended that you mix the two foods together for awhile before completely switching to a new food. Some animals, of course, are more sensitive to that than others.
If she continues to throw up and have diarrhea tomorrow, you might want to take her to the vet ASAP in case she's in danger of dehydration. They'll probably also check her for intestinal parasites and all of that fun stuff.
Hope your kitty is feeling better soon!

Hi there! I'm sorry that your cat is sick. I think it would be best if ou take her to the vet immediately. It may or not may have to do with the change in diet. She might be feeling something else too. A veterinarian would be the best person to check her out.
By the way, how old is she?

just be careful if you take her to the vet because they end up charging a lot of money if they end up keeping the cat overnight or if they do some type of treatment.

In the future, if you think your cat is really sick and aren't sure if you want to take her to the vet, call you vet. Many vets will try to diagnose or at least help over the phone and it doesn't cost a dime! Often animal aliments can be cured with human medicine if you know what to buy an dhow much to get (info your vet would give you over the phone).

cats do not get sick easily .... if they throw up alot and poop every where they are probably pretty sick... you SHOULD take her to a vet.... either that or dont be surprised if she doesnt last long...
