Hi,
Noodle recently underwent a hind leg amputation. (2 weeks ago)
She keeps trying to scratch her ear but obviously cant-and just wiggles the stump - and she cant clean her ear.............
So i have been scratching her ear and face for her - but today she was going mad trying to shake her head and bash it on something- i ran to her and looked in her ear ?(the one she cant reach) and she pushed her head onto my finger, further and further down her ear - just like she did shen she used to clean inside them- then she stopped- and licked the wax off my finger ( was more like an oily sheen)
It was a bit gross but i feel so sorry for her- it was so odd to watch- she was using my finger and nail like her own foot.
Is this ok? I didnt want to push my finger in her ear to far but she did it herself- moving her ear how she wanted!
I feel strange..............but happy that it hade her feel better
Any advice from amputee bunny mummys on how to combat these itches? I cant do her any harm can I?
