Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This can be a serious toxicity but it depends on how much was ingested. Yes, it is indicated to have him evaluated by a veterinarian as soon as possible. They would be able to determine how much was ingested possibly and proceed accordingly. Best of luck!
