Hi folks, new to the forums... but need a little advice from people who'd know better than me.
Here's the situation...
I'm watching a friends chinchilla while she's away and at 5 this moring I walk into my room to find that her little fluffball had managed to snag one of the handles to a plastic grocery bag in which his food and chews were carried to the house in.
He chewed on the plastic and it looks like he might've ingested a very small amount of it. I didn't find any pieces of the bag in his cage and removed the bag from anywhere near him and have been keeping an eye on him since the incident.
It's been thirteen and a half hours since all this happened and he still appears healthy and normal. He's still eating, chewing, and behaving the way he should.
My question is: How concerned do I need to be? What are signs I should watch for in case there is a problem?
Many thanks!
