Well, my cat has a wonderful surprise for us today: metallic ribbon coming out his bum. It was from this ornament I received from the museum where I volunteer. I've seen him playing with it and biting it, but I had no idea he would eat it. I had put it away, but it must have fell on the floor again.
I couldn't believe what I was seeing. This was literally the only piece of ribbon in the house and he ate it. I have no idea when it happened. Could have been a few days or a week ago.
He was at the vet just this morning to take a urine sample to check for crystals. He came home, went in the litter box, and pooped ribbon. What timing! If only he could have done it there.
I called the vet back frantic and explained what happened. Of course, the call cut off in the middle and I desperately called back. Since he passed the ribbon, is pooping, eating, and not vomiting she said he should be fine. Hopefully it stays that way.
I just feel so crappy. My cat had PU surgery almost two months ago and that was torture for him. I feel like a terrible pet servant. Now I'll be constantly worried for a while again.
