Ada can be seen disapproving of her collar in this thread.
It looked so much like a little Victorian poke-bonnet. The "ribbon" underneath was a piece of bandage, complete with a bow in it, to stop the collar digging into her skin.
I took it off as she was so unhappy in it. The stress was probably worse for her than a few bits of eaten bandage. I have fed her two Oxbow Papaya tablets - which she happily munches up - and syringe-feeding her Biolapis - so that Beatrix doesn't drink half of it, as would happen if it were in a bowl. And she has been eating plenty of hay since she was released from the bonnet. So hopefully her gut will be ok.
The bandage at least seems to distract her from chewing the stitches.
