Siiiigh...
Hi guys, meet my beloved 8 year old large chunk of a cat (aptly named Fancy):
She has a penchant for being worse than a toddler when it comes to putting things in her mouth. My house is BABY proofed because of this. I crafted a new toy for her recently, being the doting kitty-mom I am. Half a fishing rod, tied through it with some yarn... some very securely tied yarn. It was a hit, of course. I kept it right by my desk, seemingly out of reach, but when I went to play with her with it Sunday, half the string had mysteriously vanished. Could've got caught on something... could've been eaten, I don't know.
I've turned the house upside down and can't find it. I never saw her eat it, but... cue me having a huge meltdown which I am still currently having. She just got over an episode of random Vestibular Syndrome so I'm... yeah, I have no nerves left. I'm a nervous WRECK.
String missing is about... maybe 12" long? Just cotton.
She has been eating normally (like a pig), drinking plenty of water, super playful as always. Tummy isn't sore (she's got a really severe belly-rub addiction). It's now Tuesday and she's had three A+ grade BM's which I have dug through with my only pair of chicken tongs. C'est la vie.
Since she has produced no yarn and hasn't even vomited at all, I gave her some hairball lubricant today and am waiting for the next BM which should happen within the next couple hours.
My question is, about how long till I can feel pretty comfortable that she didn't eat the string? How long till she might actually pass it? She's extremely regular. Since she's got a sensitive tummy, I have to keep up with her bathroom habits anyway. So... advice, wisdom, group-hug for everyone else that's endured this?
