how do I find out which cat is vomiting?

I've got 4 cats. One of them has taken to throwing up 3-4 times a week but I DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE because it always happens when I'm not around. Sometimes I hear the "huey-huey" noise but by the time I get there, cat has gone and only mess remains. I can't treat or take to vet until I know who it is. Any ideas? I can't keep them all separate and anyway it happens some days and not others. Sometimes it's straight after food and sometimes in the middle of the night.

    Okay this is a gross idea sorry but it might work.. You could smell there breathe and see.. Believe me you'll know after they have vomited..

    are you sure its only one of them? i would try a different food. certain foods will upset cats stomachs more than others. try switching the brand see if it helps?

    Keep them confined to seperate rooms until you find out.
