    Well it's paper so it's obviously hard to digest. I would take him to a vet so he doesn't die of impaction depending on how much he ate would depend on what i would do though ( If he ate a ton i would probably go right now.

    not only that but the amount of chemicals used in processing most toilet paper may cause issues.. but how did he get to the toilet paper to begin with? Or do you mean paper towels like to clean with?

    Okay, unless the frog is acting sick I wouldn't immediately take it to a vet... They can get stressed out very easily, so an unnecessary vet trip can do more harm than good (plus, there is probably very little a general dog/cat vet will be able to do for a frog. It's good to try and find a reptile/exotics vet in your area).

    How much did the frog eat? Most toilet paper won't hold together well in water, so unless the frog ate a big amount, my guess is this probably won't cause an impaction. They end up accidentally eating leaves and stuff in the wild, so a small amount of undigestible material probably won't be fatal.
    All you can do is watch him for symptoms of impaction or poisoning (if the paper was perfumed or treated with antibacterial stuff that might be an issue).

    Also, how did the frog get toilet paper anyway?
