What on earth are these?!

I found these in her carrier back in November, on the way to the vet and found them again today! The vet had no idea what they were. Kind of a mystery.

She's her usual little princessy self. Pooping/eating/drinking etc.

Has anyone seen these before? I'm worried she might be eating the wood instead of just chewing it. Everything is chin safe, from suppliers here. Diet change was some different types of hay.

Did she eat a rosehip in the carrier? Those look like rosehip seeds.

I can't remember if we gave her one on the way to the vet. But she did get a rosehip today for being a good girl when I picked her up

Thank you! I looked them up and that's exactly what they were. It's a little alarming to see them after she gets up!

I was hoping they weren't coming out of her.

It does kind of seem like a lot from one rosehip

That's what I thought too but that's all she got. At most she gets a rosebud or a rosehip a few times a week if she lets us pick her up with minimal drama.

(she's in training!)

But yeah, there was a little pile of them. They're identical to this photo:

Oh and! They're not always there when she gets her rosehip.

Definitely from a rosehip; I've had that much come out of the larger sized ones. Nothing to worry about!
