Thank you for submitting your question regarding Sryker. It is good that he only steps a small amount of food this time. I would monitor him very closely today. If he starts to show signs similar to his first incident, then he will need to see his veterinarian. If he does well, then do not feed him tonight. Offer plenty of fresh water if he wants it. I hope this information helps!
