I was hand feeding Romeo whose 12 pounds. The tip of plastic folk came off while feeding him. I’m not sure if he ate it or not. Should he be ok? What to watch for? Pic included . Thank you

Hello, I am so sorry for your concerns with Romeo possibly eating the tip of the plastic fork. If this tiny piece is all that might have been ingested, then you should have no worries of this causing any problems at all. It will pass easily & should not cause any issues. Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
