Hi there! Corn cobs can sometimes cause trouble for our furry friends, so it's good you're keeping an eye on her. If she's still pooping normally, that's a positive sign, but let's play it safe.
Here's what to watch for over the next few days:
- Vomiting or retching
- Loss of appetite
- Lethargy or acting unusually tired
- Abdominal pain (she might be tense or sensitive if you touch her tummy)
- Diminished bowel movements or diarrhea
If you see any of these symptoms, or if you're feeling uneasy, it might be time for a vet visit. Corn cobs can create blockages which could become serious fairly quickly. Most importantly, if she shows any signs of distress or starts vomiting, that's usually an emergency, and I would recommend contacting a vet immediately.
In the meantime, you can keep her hydrated and watch her activity. Ensure she has access to fresh water and try to maintain her regular diet unless a vet advises otherwise. No need for DIY treatments—just some vigilant monitoring will do.
You're doing all the right things by checking in. Trust your gut if something seems off. Better safe than sorry!
If you're unsure or your pet’s symptoms worsen, it's best to book a call with a vet on Dial A Vet for professional advice.
