A small amount of glitter is not likely harmful. A large amount of glitter could cause significant G.I. upset because the edges are sharp. If Bonita seems uncomfortable or starts exhibiting signs of illness, have her examined by the veterinarian. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
