PLEASE HELP I think my cat may be ill

Hi, I'm new here and in a rather frantic state...I would appreciate any advice you can offer.

My cat is 16 years old and thank god has always coped well in terms of health - no major past problems to report. But today I noticed she was a bit "off", she just seemed quite feeble and grumpy, and later in the day she threw up some hair and saliva. (She has been eating normally though). She has got more and more grumpy throughout the day, she's always quite cranky, but now she's holed herself up behind some storage items and is hissing for no reason when I approach. What could be distressing her? Do you think she's ill, should I force my way in and take her to the vet?

If you are worried about her, then definitely get in there and take her to the vet. Its impossible to say what is wrong with her over the net. Throwing up a bit of clear fluid and hair is quite common and you said she is still eating. She sounds as though she is in pain almost with the wanting to hide and spitting.
