My cat drank water with a small amount of garlic. Is it toxic?

Question

A very small amount of fresh garlic (a fifth of a clove, of that) fell into my small cats water bowl and she drank a fair amount lot before we noticed, but I don't think she ate Amy. Should we be worried? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 2 years and 2 months old | 7 lbs

I think your cat should be fine. They have to actually ingest the garlic and a clove in her water bowl should have shed enough material into the water to affect her. Of course, keep an eye out for any adverse symptoms, such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, loss of appetite. If she displays any signs of illness, get her in to see your vet right away.
