Hello. Without knowing how large the plastic wrapper was, you might want to have Coco seen by your veterinarian to induce him to throw the wrapper up. I would be concerned that the wrapper might cause an intestinal blockage, so it might be best to get it out before it causes a real problem. Good luck & thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
