Angel Alvarado, LVT · Accepted Answer

Vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, lethargy or abdominal pain. The screws should pass eventually but the possibility of internal damage or toxicity from the metal is possible. Feed a bulky diet for the next few days and monitor for their passing. Consider a visit to your vet for an exam and abdominal xrays to locate them.
