Posted June 17, 200519 yr Just had a call from my partner it seems Bobby has somehow attacked Candy and hurt his foot and now he will only perch on one foot, Ive just range back and he is now using both feet but will still hop onto one foot now and again . Can someone please tell me what damage this sounds like - I dont get off work for another 2 hours and am far too worried and impatient to wait to see for myself. It sounds like Bobby has grabbed it and wouldnt let go I dont think its broken as he is using it. Ive booked a vets appointment for tomorrow even if I dont need it.
June 17, 200519 yr he might have fractured it or he may have damaged his toenail. when casper was bullied in the pet shop they pulled out hs toenail - might be an idea to check he has all his toenails. if they have been living together fine for ages i think this would be unlikely though. it might just heel by itself or your vet mught suggest a splint on his leg for a few days to help it heel quicker, so i would deifnitely take him along. let us now how he gets on x Edited June 17, 200519 yr by pixie25
June 17, 200519 yr It is probably a little bruised and just hurts. If he is using it a little bit more as the day goes on, I'd say he'll be fine. Did Bobby draw blood? If he's not using it tomorrow and there was no blood, I'd give the vet a call.
June 18, 200519 yr It doesn't sound too bad. Buzz bit Jaz's toe the other day and he sooked about it for a little while and then got over it.
June 20, 200519 yr Author Hey thanks everyone Candy is doing fine now wasnt as worse as I first imagined - it was a bit sore but no blood was drawn so I bathed it for him in a bit of lukewarm water and not long afterwards he was using it again. The next day he was back to normal. Was just a prank that went wrong I think as they never fight more than a few playful kicks. All is calm now anyways. Thanks for all your well wishes.
