Hello everyone, I'm freaking out pretty bad and don't know if this warrants an emergency or not.
My 10 month old kitten swallowed my fake nail (fingernail). It's a plastic fake nail, that was on my pinkie. So it's the smallest of the nails but still, a decent size I guess. Will he be able to pass this? It has no pointy edges or anything, but it still is a decent sized fake plastic nail. I'm really worried it's going to scrape his intestines or puncture something. It's not like it's a huge foreign object, it's a fake pinkie fingernail. But to a kitten it may be large, I don't know.
Does anyone have any advice or has this happened to their cats? I feel so irresponsible and disgusting for letting this happen. I shouldn't have left it in the open where he could get it. I didn't think he'd eat something like that. But I can't find it anywhere so I'm assuming he swallowed it whole.
