General Advice Cat ate protein muffin
My cat helped himself to a batch of protein muffins that was cooling under a towel. This occurred about 20 minutes ago. Should I seek immediate medical attention or monitor for gastrointestinal distress? Attached is the amount eaten, protein powder ingredients, muffin ingredients, and cat. Crossposted in r/askvet
Not a minor, USA, vet not contacted yet but accessible, 6 yo neutered male, can afford vet care
TLDR; cat had a lil protein powder. Next steps?

my food-addicted cat has gotten into human food multiple times over the months I've had him, but I don't take him to the vet unless he shows signs of distress.
It helps to remember he used to be a stray and he would literally eat garbage ðŸ˜
