Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This depends on many factors such as the size of this toy for example. I would recommend that you continue to monitor her closely for any signs consistent with a gastrointestinal obstruction such as vomiting, inappetence and abdominal pain. If these are observed, have her evaluated by a veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Best of luck!
