Menthol can cause GI upset, but without seeing Mikey in person, I can't say if he will be ok or not. I would take him into a vet immediately. Please take him into an ER vet clinic; if there isn't one in your area, there will be a vet on call for emergencies. The information to reach that vet is found on a clinic's answering machine or website. Best of luck.
