My cat ate a little bit of potato that had such garlic cooked into it. I caught him before he ate too much. Should I be concerned or contact our vet?

If he didn't eat a lot I would not be overly worried but if you can quantify how much he ingested it would be best to contact your local vet so they can do a calculation for you. ( https://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/poison/garlic/ )
