Tigrinus feeding concern

[Angler]

I got my 14-15" Tig nailing Massivore. He hits the pellets so hard that he gets gravel in his mouth every time. It looks like he does a pretty good job of spitting out the gravel, but my obvious concern is that he will swallow some and get sick. Does anyone have this problem with their Tigs or other larger cats? Is it something I should be concerned about? I assume they scavenge in the wild and maybe instictually spit out inedible objects....

I know an option is bare bottom, but if I don't need to worry, then I don't want to worry.

I don't think so my RTCxTSN can suck up 10 massivore pellets and one nls pellet and manage to always spit out the nls. Idk how they do it, but I think that would be comparable to wondering if your fish could drown while going for a swim
