If Lily seems completely fine otherwise I think you could monitor her tonight and contact your vet in the morning to see if they would recommend an exam. If she loses balance again, seems disoriented, or vomits is recommend seeing a vet tonight. It’s possible that she had a short seizure or other neurologic problem, or that she has low blood sugar or an electrolyte imbalance.
