If the plasters are quite small and have been shredded into pieces prior to being swallowed there should not be the risk of obstruction. They might cause vomiting or they might pass through the intestinal tract. If they are large and quite padded , you might want to have him checked over and have vomiting induced. Vomiting can be induced successfully with an injection at your vets or emergency clinic , provided that the plasters were eaten in the last two hours.
