  So I had dropped a *chewed* gum in my bunny’s (2,5 yrs old, about 6lbs) reach, and he ate it. To my knowledge bunnies can digest gum, so I’m worried about the nicotine part. It was chewed, but some nicotine might’ve still been left in it still, right? The gum contains 2mg, and he ate it maybe 10 minutes ago. I need help! What is a fatal dose? Did he even ingest any since the gum was chewed?

  If you can you need to take him to a vet and quick! I’m pretty sure ANY nicotine is a fatal dose.

  You should absolutely contact a vet right away. Hopefully there were only traces of nicotine left in the gum, but we can’t know that.
