Joey - foot update

Poor Joey love :( I would think that if he's not limping and puts his full weight on it, then it can't be causing pain.
 
You've got a resilient wee man there, j&b...long may he continue to be pain free and happy. :love: xxxxx
 
I’m so glad he is still doing well. He is obviously unaware of the issue and living life to the full, as happy as ever :love:
 
Poor Joey. It must be horrible watching that thing growing, but like others have said, he is oblivious and that's the main thing for the moment.
 
I'm sure he must have noticed:lol: he's not that daft. I believe Joey knows better whats wrong with him better than anyone & I think Boobly understands too as their relationship has changed. They are more cuddly ..but that could be seasonal I suppose..

I'm pleased he's bright of course. Its horrible seeing it get bigger. Trying not to think what could / will happen.

Thank You for all your kind words :love:

Sending vibes.
 
I'm so sorry it has noticeably grown. :( I'm glad he seems to be comfortable walking on it, at least. I'd think Joey surely must've noticed, too, and I'm not surprised that you think Boo understands what's going on, too, and that their relationship has changed. Bunnies do seem to sense these things very well. Whether it's his health or the season or both, I'm glad Joey is getting plenty of Boo cuddles. Sending so many vibes for Joey. :love:
 
Thank You Mike, Katty m, C&D & Reader.

He was begging me to open some new forage last night & was periscoping away ...so really hope we are managing his pain. He still seems on good form generally
 
Sending more vibes for the majestic Joey - who is really an amazing bunny with such a blessed life with you and mousey and Boo. I hope that he continues to be comfortable and his pain meds keep him comfortable. He’s a very special rabbit. Xx
 
It does sound like you're keeping him pain-free if he's periscoping. I'm glad he can do that since it's an excellent way to beg and get yummy things. :love:
