Young Bun
Hi! My bunny tore one of his nails on his front left paw after jumping from his cage on to the floor. I rushed him to the vet as he was bleeding a bit, and luckily the nail fell off before the vet had to take it out himself! I asked the vet to give him a painkiller injection before he even touched him, and afterwards he gave him anti-biotics shot and cauterised the wound. Twitch seems fine and is running around as usual now (this happened sunday morning, of course!:roll, but the vet mentioned that the worse case scenario is that the infection attacks the bone, in which case we need an amputation!:shock:
He said that I shouldn;t need to do anythg, but I want to make sure it doesn;t get infected, so does anyone have any tips? I heard about salt and water but my o/h said it would be too agressive, so I tried diluting a bit of the disinfectant used in hospitals with water and put that on the wound....
any tips would help! Thanks!
