Probably just a few licks isn't going to be a big deal. I occasionally even give Feeby a small spoonful of cottage cheese. Of course, all cats are different, so just keep an eye out on them for vomiting or other signs of illness. You could also call the vet and ask about it. But, I truly think it will be alright.

Hi!
As mentioned, the small amounts they consumed probably aren't harmful.

Instead of ice cream with its sugar, you could try a little unflavoured cream, either heavy cream or half-and-half.
You could even try a little bit of some green beans, or plain, organic or homemade applesauce occasionally

Lily washes my ice cream bowls all the time. She doesn't have any reaction. She also loves cheese, and if I have some, I have to share it with her.

A few licks most likely won't cause any harm.

For future reference, here's a list of foods to avoid giving to your cat: People Foods to Avoid Feeding Your Pets

While raw meat meat, raw eggs, and raw bones are on that list, many people feed raw diets to their cats that include such foods and have no issues with them. Cooked meat and a whole cooked egg is fine to give to a cat but never cooked bones.
