My cat licked acid toilet cleaner. What should I do if no symptoms?

Question

Our cat licked a little toilet bowl cleaner that was in the toilet. The active ingredient is hydrochloric acid (9.50%). She has no symptoms. We gave her water and milk. Anything else you'd suggest doing? Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Female | spayed | 13 years and 6 months old | 8.5 lbs

Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Kitty Perry. I love her name! I’d just watch her for now, and check her mouth to make sure there are no burns in it. If you see burns, take her into a vet immediately. If you see excessive drooling, vomiting, difficulty eating, or lethargy, have her seen by a vet. You did the right thing by giving her milk. I hope this helps.
