Ok, so my boyfriend was feeding my kitten from a bottle. Even though we told him he is to old and completely ready to be off the bottle because all he was doing pretty much was biting the nipple. Anyway, he was feeding him from the bottle and Tigger, bit of half the nipple and swallowed it. I called his vet and she said all we can really do is wait and see. She said cats are good vomits but he hasn't vomited. That happened Monday night. It is now Wednesday evening. He has been pooping, but it hasn't come through his poo yet either. The vet said to watch his behavior. If he starts to get a hurt abdomen or stops eating, bring him in. But he is eating just fine, pooping just fine, running around playing like never before, and in no pain. But I don't know what else to do. She said something about 72 hours, and possible surgery, but that probably wont happen because he is so young. Then she said we could take him to a emergency hospital and they could stick a scope up his rear end and pull it out that way. But I am honestly beginning to wonder if he actually swallowed the darn nipple. I can't find it anywhere, but he isn't pooping it out, he hasn't vomited it out, and he is acting normal. Would you please over me some advice? What should I do? Please get back to me A.S.A.P!!!
Thanks in advance.
