Our cat once ate a thrown-away two-foot-long string of dental floss.

Didn’t hurt her, but got...temporarily stuck on attempted exit.
She ended up painting the walls in several rooms, and their carpets, with brown.

Stupid cat.

A long time ago, we had a beautiful grey cat who grabbed a threaded needle from the table, unbeknownst to me when I was distracted with a phone call. I was frantic when I discovered it missing. I knew it had to be her, despite having other cats, this caper had her MO written all over it. I watched the litterbox every time she used it, and was eventually rewarded with a suspiciously pointed, uh, “specimen”. Thread and needle were both inside, the former all in knots and the latter stained a peculiar multicolored hue from the digestive juices, and the cat was okay, and lived to be 20. I miss her a lot. She’s on the list of most memorable ones, for sure!

One of our dogs became very lethargic, would not eat or drink. Took her to the vet who suspected a blockage. Did x-rays. Cause undetermined. He sent us home to wait and see.

On my way from school the next day, daughter called, frantic. When I arrived about 10 minutes later to a pile of er, um, vomit, it contained a mostly intact snake but missing its head...

Now that was a stomach-churner.
