It all started when my cat vomited these worms, supposedly roundworms, which we are going to give treatment to really, really soon. A few days after that cat vomited, one of my other cat kept on vomiting, too. Now, 4 of my other cats have vomited, too. And sometimes it would be yellow (It didn't look like foam)... Does anyone know why my cats are doing this?

You must take all four of them to the Vet immediatley. It sounds like they have contracted worms from each other. There is no other way to rid them of the worms without your Vet's attention.

A cat that is vomiting worms has a terrible, terrible, end-stage infestation of worms, and I hope you have had her treated by now. If your other cats are vomiting, but they are not vomiting worms, their problem is probably not related to the worm-vomiting cat. Or it may be. You need to seek veterinary care for your animals. Repeated vomiting or regular vomiting that lasts for more than two days can be very dangerous for cats, because it dehydrates them, and opens the way for lots of illnesses. So call a vet, and take in one cat that is vomiting the yellow fluid. Whatever is wrong with that cat is wrong with all the others.
Purists won't like this response. They will say you should take all the cats in to the vet, and they are right. But if you are asking this question, I'm assuming you can't afford a trip to the vet for all your cats. If that is the case, take in one, and get meds for all. But if you can afford vet care for all of them, get them to the doctor. Whatever you have in your cat community, it is either infectious or they are all getting into the same toxin, and you need to deal with it.

They've got roundworms- and those things are contagious. Take your cats to the vet already! And meanwhile give your place a good thorough scrubbing.

They could have gotten worms from the other cat. I would phone the vet for advice and medication for all.

It may have spreaded with the cats.. I feel sorry for you I would be crushed if my cats had a disease like that.
