Mmk...so...Timber has developed a new & very bad habit. He has always tried to chew his posts once I take them out of his ears (the wax, maybe?) but lately it has become a real problem. A couple days ago he got one of his off, well then I couldn't find it to throw away. I didn't think much of it until he went #2 the next day, the ENTIRE tape wrapped backer rod post was in his poop! Scared me to death, especially since it had a zip tie on it (I was trying something new) & I don't know how it didn't get lodged or lacerate his organs. Well I counted my blessings & moved on. Today after I got home from work he had removed his left post & now it's gone...I seriously think he is purposely trying to get them out so he can eat them, UGH!
So anyway I called off work tomorrow so I can pupsit him in case he needs rushed to the vet. Any ideas on how I can deter this behavior? He's watched very closely anyway & now even more so, he's only left alone a couple hours a day since my boyfriend & I work opposite shifts.
