 HELP!!!!!!!!!

try giving him his favorite treat, either a piece of banana or some grape halves--always halves so they can’t choke--and see if it eats that. If so, he may just have a sour tummy. I have heard of folks crushing up a tums and giving half of it on their food if they will eat. I’ve just left my iggy alone but watched closely. It may take a couple of poops to get rid of it all, but he should be fine after.
Just keep him warm, maybe give him a nice shallow warm bath to see if that will induce a poo, then lots of praise and a ’nano’.
he’ll be fine in a while.

Hey CJ.....

How are you doing?..How’s Dontae? Who fed him the peta bread?...Not too worried about the onion..but the bread...he could be a little plugged.....has he been pooping.....If he’s not pooping try and give him a few drops of some mineral oil or olive oil...and give him some warm baths....Please keep us updated....
