He may be trying to pass them. The best thing to do it feed him canned pumpkin or green beans to help him go to the bathroom. You can take him to the vet for a rectal exam to see if they can assist in getting it out. If you ntoice any vomiting or anorexia then he maybe obstructed and need to be seen
