Worried About Joshua

When we give Joshua treats he often takes them and binkies around and around his room. Sunday night he did that, but caught his foot on his water bowl knocking it over. When we took him downstairs to play he kept flopping and getting up, like he couldn't get comfortable. It was late at night so we couldn't take him to the vet then, but in the morning he was fine and was binkying everywhere. Last night he slipped off the bed while we were giving him a treat and then started acting like he was in pain again.

Right now he is fine, but I am worried. Perhaps I'm being paranoid, but I hate seeing my bun in pain, any clue to what happened to his leg? :(
 
Could be a numer of things, I'd take him to the vet just to be safe.

He sounds like a right character though! :lol:
 
If you think he's in pain then it's worth a quick trip to the vet just have a look. Silly overexcited bunnies :roll:
 
Thank you both for your responses, we didn't take him to the vet because yesterday he didn't show any signs of pains and was more relaxed then he has ever been. If he starts acting like he is in pain again I will definitely go to the vet.

And Hesperus one time we gave him a huge timothy cube and he tried to run around with that in his mouth :roll: It took him a bit to realize he had dropped it halfway through!
