Hi. Earlier this morning (around 11:30 am), my cockatiel was playing in the room (out of his cage). A few minute (emphasis on very very small) particles of naphthalene were lying on the floor. I saw him peck on one of those particles and immediately took him away. I am almost sure that he didn't ingest one. It's only when I smelt a faint scent of naphthalene around his beak that I got really worried. I washed the area around his beak clean with water and have been monitoring him since. It's been almost 3 hours and his behavior is completely normal. His flight is normal, droppings are normal and so is his appetite. He is singing songs and playing around (peekaboo which is his favorite game). When he took his afternoon nap for 10 minutes, he slept while sitting on the perch on one leg like he normally does. I saw him drinking water quite a few times since but it could just be me overthinking. I am really really worried. Does he sound ok??
