New to this and have just created an account for advice...
I have a 4 month old mini lop called Hendrix...
He's such a friendly little thing and loves my dog (id never leave them alone together) but the dog goes up to the cage and they touch noses the dog sometimes gives him a kiss...
Well, Saturday night a fox approached his cage - Hendrix obviously thinking the fox was as friendly as our dog went to close to the cage. I managed to get down there in time for no blod shed however, it would appear that Hendrix has now hurt his front leg. I dont think the fox bit him as the is no evidence of this (no gash no bloody or anything like that).
He doesnt appear to be able to feel it. Its very floopy and hes just dragging it along the floor i took him straight to the vets and he said his leg may be paralised and might have to be ampuated if after a rest it makes no improvment. He has given me cat painkiller :S and sent me on my way. Im not to happy about this as Hendrix still hasnt made any improvement. He still wants cuddles and is eating and drinkin and pooing just as before.
Ive been giving him his meds nd putting him to bed with a heat pad! his back to the vets on Monday! what should I do??
