Should I be worried?

I am a bit.

I noticed Spyder had some drool on his chin, so I figured maybe it's just from sweating/panting...I haven't seen him panting, but it's a bit warm today.
When I looked again a couple seconds later he had this string of drool hanging down from his mouth...like dog drool I guess. I've never seen this on a cat before.

He did throw up a little bit of boiled chicken last night right after I gave it to him , then it occured to me that I boiled it with some garlic powder!


He hasn't thrown up any food today that I'm aware of.
I'll be keeping a close eye on him.

The drooling can go along with nausea...any chance he's swallowed string or gotten into something else? If he continues to drool and throw up, I'd call the vet before the end of today - better safe than having a crisis after hours

Thanks.

I fed him a few minutes before I wrote the first post in this thread. He hasn't thrown it up and I haven't seen anymore drool. He's sleeping now. The vet closes at 8:00 (which is just about 2 hours from now) so I'll keep watching him.
