Cat ate foam, passed it, acting normal. Should I take her to the vet?

Question

Hi, my cat had eaten foam 2 days ago and was displaying signs of an intestinal abstruction but then she had started to become better but was obviously not her normal self. I come home from an event just now and find what I believe to be her poop. I went through it and found the pieces of foam shown in the photo. She is also now COMPLETLY normal (playing with my other cat and being just her usual self) Does this mean she is good and I don't need to spend thousands on a vet?

Hi and thanks for your request. I would strongly recommend to monitor her for the next 48hours to see if appetite and urination/defecation are normal. There may be some pieces ''on the way out''. Small amount of liquid paraffin (2mls per meal) and a bland diet based on boiled chicken and rice would be ideal for the next week.
