we had panick in the house before because he ate a hairtie... luckily he bit it to pieces and we found it in his stool the next day. We tried to induce vomit and the vet but it didnt work.
This morning he ate a shoelace... its pretty long too. Like 7 cm? I found the more hard part of the shoelace (that thing at the end of it) on the floor. So he didn’t want to eat that. The rest is nowhere to be found... I assume and hope he bit it to pieces... he loves chewing on straws and shoelaces etc and before you know it... its gone. We try to hide most and cut off straws off of toys but now he found the shoelaces of my boyfriends’ shoe. He tried to eat some of mine too but failed but you can see all the parts he tried to chew at.
I assume he ate in small pieces and will probably be in his stool again? Or can they slurp up a shoelace like we do with spaghetti? Because inducing vomiting didnt work last time i felt like it wouldnt this time either. Also it was five in the morning and i didnt have a ride to a vet. So it didnt feel like an option.
How long untill this can be in his stool? How long untill signs of something bad can be shown?
Thanks in advance
Btw the shoelace is pretty standard, not those flat broad ones
