Question
Our bunny at a piece of gum.
it wasn't the whole thing but it was a pretty small amount but i'm still worried it might do something to him.
He swallowed it already and he seems pretty okay
is it okay? or should i go get him checked?

Answer
Hi Jessica,

if it was only a small piece, he will probably be just fine.  Make sure he eats his hay as normal as this will help to make sure it gets through him okay.  If you have some petromalt you can give him a little bit of this to also help make sure it gets through him okay.

Don't let him have gum in the future.
