So I waited only a week and fed a fuzzy today actually and it's been 5 hrs same thing. I didn't read this information before I fed again or I'd waited the 2wks.

After 5+ hours, I suggest, as was suggested above, that you gently attempt to remove it. If you are unable to remove it, you should take it to the vet immediately. Even if you are able to remove it, you should take it to the vet before attempting to feed again. This is not something that you want to happen a third time.
