Silicon is neutral.  Watch for normal bowel movements, straining, loss of appetite, and I would call your vet on Monday.  S/he might suggest a mild stool softener like fiber to keep things moving....?

Hi Stephen, oh ok

so it's not poisons  to  her? ..Thank goodness..

She went this morning , appetite seems fine, but isi't as hypo as she normally is , i'll keep a close eye on her..

She had a fiber type thing when she first came to us ... she was only 6 weeks and was hand reared (she had been dumped with her two brothers, no mum

Had lots of  tummy troubles )

I'll give the vets a ring and pick some -up ...

Plus @  8-10 weeks had to have an op as she ate some ribbon/string (still paying of the vet bill )

I worry so much about her , she is my baby...

Thank you you have put my mind at ease a bit..

OK i'm glad you feel better and that's great that you will contact your vet.  No advice by anyone here should be a substitute for professional veterinary advice.
