Dental issues (possibly), poor diet (i know this isnt the case in Louie :wave
, being overweight an unable to reach to eat them, or some abx can cause it (dont know if Louie is on any medication?)
Or in Ginger's case, occasionally dropped out of mouth and not interested any more in one thats gone 'cold' :mrgreen:
Thats regurgitated information.

No he's not on any medication, not overweight, no teeth issues as far as I know :?
I nearly found out if they were "cold" as I very nearly skidded on them :shock:

I dont think, apart from during being unwell, either of mine have ever had any 'spares' as such.
Squished in Caecs in carpet are fun to get out :lol: I know!
Hope Louie is okay Lily :wave:

my vet says they can produce some 'unformed' caecs, which they leave as they smell and taste different, usually from medication, although not always, could be the reasons already said, or a dodgy bit of food. only a problem if the keep leaving lots of them.

once in a blue moon I find one, is usually as Graham said that it's gone cold and they don't fancy that one urgh
If there was more and more being left I would contact vet, but just an odd one could just be, he has eaten a bit too much of something rich, maybe a certain herb in his forage.

He did seem to be hoovering up a lot of grass/leaves/lavender. Greedy sod.

Maybe it's just he had a bit too much the greedy bun bun, and now his poopies are too rich

I hate it when Louie is eating them fresh from the botty, especially when I'm eating my dinner :shock:

I ocassionaly find the odd clump, sometimes when the bun is too busy doing something else they won't reach down to eat it so just leave it
