Did he eat the whole tube or did he just chew the tube? If he just chewed the tube and can still move his tongue, eat and drink, then likely he will not have a problem as whatever glue may be in his mouth probably will get shed and swallowed in a non-sticky form. However if he chewed and swallowed the superglue tube then this is an emergency and he will need to be seen by a vet right now.
