Be worried -- and take her to the vet. She might have eaten something that is poisonous to cats.

Yes, be worried.
TAKE YOUR CAT TO THE VET!
Occasionally, it's normal for a cat to vomit a little, but when it's accompanied with a lot of sleeping, a.k.a. listlessness, it's time to rush them to the vet, and hurry. Cat's are small and it doesn't take long for them to become dehydrated which in itself can be life threatening.
As your cat's owner, it is your duty to take your cat to the vet and have it treated.
Please don't wait.
BTW don't give your cat Milk, there is no reason to do so, if your cat is vomiting, you don't want to give her diarrhea, which is what the milk will do. There is never any medical or good reason what so ever to give a cat regular cows milk.

This could be anything from hairballs to poison to kidney failure. I would keep an eye on the kitty its only been one day. Take her to the vet if the kitty is lethargic or pale. Check her gums they should be pink not white. Check to see if she is dehydrated by pulling gently on the skin behind her head ( neck area ) if it stays "tented" she is dehydrated. How old is this kitty? How is her appitite?

Please see a vet! Cats frequently get hairballs & just need an inexpensive hairball treatment that is given about once a week, but sometimes vomiting can be the first sign of illness or poisoning.

she might be overheated or has eaten something bad. How's her breathing? If she's having trouble breathing I would get her to a vet asap, if not, just keep an eye on her and if she gets worse or doesnt get better by morning, then definitely take her to the vet!

Sound like she ate something that is giving her a tummy ache! My cat does this a lot. She should be fine in a day. Just make sure she is drinking. If she stops drinking or eating altogether, take her to a vet.( Try giving her a bit of milk. It could cause her a little diarrhea, but could help flush her system. Make sure it is a little milk!)

Have you checked if the cat food your feeding your cat is listed with any of the cat food that has been recalled?

Yes you should be worried! Please call your vet ASAP and describe the symptoms to them. They will probably want to see your kitten.
