Last year I noticed that Rupert had pink patches on his hocks so I took him to the vets and the vet said that they were fine and it is just hard skin and it happens because they walk like us from heel to toe. When I had him castrated in November I asked again and they said they were fine but last night when he has leaning forward his heels really stood out and look red so next week I am gong to take him back to a different vets because I am not confident that his heels are ok!!!!
They dont seem to bother him and they only way I can think it happens is because he leaps from the carpet onto my bed a lot and maybe that rubs him. He is a house rabbit and has 24hour run off my bedroom and he has a puppy crate which is his base, I clean his litter try out everyday so he isnt stood in dirty bedding.
Im going to see what the new vet says but I am a bit reluctant to change vets because I have been with my them for over 10 years and they have a vet and nurses there throughbthe night but I suppose I want whats best for my bunnies.
What would you do? :shock: :shock:
