Someone mentioned eating grass....and my Mimi does it quite often. But, we just had our second time of a grass blade going the wrong way and ending up in her nasal passages. She started snorting and sneezing on Friday, and this lasted through the holiday weekend. She was able to expel it before I could get her to the vet....but she was miserable, and the sight of that grass blade coming out of her tiny nostril wasn't too pleasant either. And the first time it happened, we had no idea what was wrong, just that Mimi was very uncomfortable, coughed a lot, and had the stinkiest breath ever. Two weeks later, after a course of antibiotics, the vet put her under to get a good look, and found a blade of grass in between the back of her throat and her nose. YUCK!!!

Just be careful with that grass eating...it isn't always the best thing.
