I'm betting she'll be alright, Patti. I would watch her. This is all I could find quickly:

I would like to get an aloe plant to use as a salve for burns. Can I use it on my pets, too?
—Michael K.

Unfortunately, the Aloe vera plant, from the liliaceae family, does have toxic potential—both the outer portion and the inner, liquid portion. Aloe contains saponins, which can produce vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, depression, and tremors in companion animals. Due to the high probability of ingestion, we generally do not recommend using the plant as a salve on pets.
