How concerned ought I be about a bun eating a small piece of rubber from the mid-section of a (yes, used) toilet plunger (especially sincehis behavior has altered a few days' later)?
This past Thursday,my male bunmanagedeata small piece of rubber off the mid-portion of the toilet plunger, which I had placed atop the toilet lid to prevent such a thing from happening.
I'm not worried about the rubber that he ate. But he's been active the past two nights (including tonight). In fact, tonight, he voluntarily returned to his x-pen to lie down after spending only 20 minutes' outside of his pen. Typically, I need to force him back into his penned area. And once inside his pen, he stretched out (in a comfy-looking pose) but was either bruxing or grinding his teeth (I'm unsure).
I'm worried about his behavior and the possibility that he could be developing a gut-flora imbalance from whateverbacteria he may have ingestedfrom the toilet plunger. Should I be concerned? (I'm due to leave on vacation in early July, which makes any problems just before that time even more worrisome to me.)
Thank you,
Jenk
