needing advice! my baby pumpkin always gets under my feet and he is so fast, I was about to vacuum I was carrying the vacuum and I stepped on his back paw with my shoes on I didn’t have full weight but he was pulling away as I was on it, this was last night, he has been flopping, eating, drinking, he even had the zoomies and binkied but he seems a little sore, he lets me touch and rub his back hind leg and paw but not for very long like usual, but he seems okay maybe a little sore or I could be over reacting I just feel so bad and guilty. Do you think he’s okay? I feel he truly is okay possible a little sore though ❤️

Sounds like he's ok. I know this can happen, and I know this feeling of guilt..., one reason I prefer rather big bunnies (mine are about 9-10lbs), Happened some times over the last 10 years, thankfully never with an injury, I think their curved claws give them some protection.. Dogs are Drama Queens compared to rabbits,
 
If he's binkying and zooming, it can't have been a serious injury, otherwise he would be trying to stay off the foot. Most likely it was just bruised. But if he starts to have any problems with it or you have any concerns about there being a problem, it's best to consult with your knowledgeable rabbit vet.

Okay thank you! He seems to try and stay off it after running around a while! I think he is just a little sore but nothing serious I just feel terrible 😢
