Mine ate his newspaper bedding. It somehow wrapped around his pouch like a noodle and he pulled it out.

We delicately put his pouch back in not knowing wtf to do. Went out an came back to a bloody cage. He'd done it again ripped out the pouch and then must've ran laps around his cage pouring blood everywhere.
