Bilbo will do that when he gets something (anything--a piece of dried grass, fuzz from his now departed tennis ball, etc.) stuck in his throat. He's used to Mama sticking her fingers in his mouth. If I can't fish it out, I'll stick my finger tip in peanut butter and let him lick it off. Seems like the foreign object sticks to the peanut butter and it goes down. Then I try to get him to drink some water. |
