We also had a scary experience at the same time - Max got very sick. He couldn't eat or drink, or stop vomiting, so we took him to the vet. They did x-rays and there was an object in his intestines. They wanted to do exploratory surgery, but at first told us his organs might be calcifying! That was terrifying, but upon doing another x-ray the next day, we saw the object had moved. So they went in and took it out - it was a small plastic spiky ball!! He is back at home now (after 4 over nights at the vet and a couple of thousand dollars), and recovering very well. Ug was thrilled to have him back and they are inseparable again. We also have a brand new 16 foot wide baby gate blocking off the playroom area to keep this from happening again! Our new house has a large loft upstairs for toys (our dogs don't go upstairs), so that will make it easier to keep Max from inedible treats.
