I had Jager and her brother at the vets yesterday (finally they are trying to work out what her head shaking is about!) and noticed she has small red patches on her feet. I checked Fleury and Harley earlier today and found out that they both have sore feeties too I never noticed before as their feet are soo furry
They don't seem bothered by them at all, I have had Jager and Fleury just over a year now and Harley nearly a year, and this whole time they have been on carpet, but in their cages I originally had wood shavings covering the whole base, then a fleece blanket and then I just had the plastic base as they always moved the blanket to lie on the plastic. In the last week Jager and Fleury have moved into a dog crate with a wooden level and I have just put a folded up blanket on the level so they have a "soft" area and vet bed on part of the bottom of the crate. Harley currently just has plastic as his base as I've only just realised.
Sorry for the length just wanted to get in all the details, but how long do you think they have had sore feet? Would it have been caused by the hard surfaces in their cages or by the carpet? Thinking about it I'm sure a few months ago I looked at somebun's feet and they were fine :?
