    Is she going to be OK?

    BTW, Cookie is about 15 weeks.

    If it was one of those skinny rubber bands she will likely just pass it. If it is a wide one I would be getting her to a vet and get it removed.

    She'll be fine...Obelisk ate one and it looked exactly the same as it went in...a little grosser, but the same...

    If you are still concerned, you can pen or crate her separately and watch the "poop" factor to make sure it passes. [​IMG]
