My Dutch Cookie still startles very easily, even after 3.5 years, he spends lots of time in the house with me, even moreso at the moment cus I can't put him and Bella together yet (croft car boot rabbit!).
Anyway, he likes running up and down the stairs and having lots of speedy gonzales moments. Heard a commotion when I was in the kitchen, popped back into the lounge where I found him holding one of his bag legs up. He has obviously hurt himself. Anyway, has been like it for a few days now, doesn't seem to hurt him and he lifts it to wash but can't scratch his ears easily tho. I have touched it and he doesn't seem to flinch, but I am concerned cus it looks a little swollen. He bobs around the lounge and puts some weight on it and then carries it up a little too, doesn't seem to bother him that much but he doesn't dart around as much obviously
I can only assume he has twisted something like we do when we slip. Am a bit concerned at the swelling, albeit not huge, tis just I am a worrier and notice anything minute. If he had broken it he wouldn't be able to carry any weight on it at all would he, and he would be in obvious discomfort?
Gonna see how he is and if no better by Tuesday, which will be a week by then, I will have to pop him to the vet.
Any ideas on what sort of injury it could be
