Yes, I thought if we clarified the staple/stapler question, it would speed up getting a helpful answer.

I just had an incident with my guy.

He got into my niece's room where he usually picks up stuff from the floor that he shouldn't. I heard him chewing on something crunchy, and knew it couldn't be good. I reached into his mouth, with him shaking his head and pushing my hand away with his paw, trying to remove it. I couldn't feel anything, so I ran and found some food thinking he would drop what was in his mouth while eating the food. He ate the food, and didn't drop anything. I reached into his mouth and found something long and thin in the back of his mouth, likely part way in his throat. I pulled it out. It was like a long fish bone, but I think it was plastic. He is very good at hiding stuff in his mouth.
