Hello, and thank you for your question. Aloe vera should not be toxic by itself. I am also assuming he did not lick very much if it was rubbed into your face previously. However, if you notice vomiting, diarrhea, reduced appetite, or lethargy within the next 24 hours, I would advise you to visit your veterinarian, in case there were other ingredients in the gel that caused stomach upset. I hope this helps, and that Tigger does well!
