Ok, tonight my bunny was playing & running around my room. I noticed some blood on his paw. So,I checked it out and I saw one of his nails were missing. It must have gotten caught on something & ripped off while he was running. I called a local vet, asking for advice because I won't be able to get there. They said they would call me back, but never did. I put some cold water & a rag on it, trying to get all the blood off, but he was going bananas! Should I be worried? Is this going to get serious? Will he get an infection? What are the signs to look for, in an infection? Is there anything else I can do at home? If I used peroxide, will that be a bad idea? Sorry so many questions. I've had my rabbit for over a year & a half & nothing like this has happened before. I have Nail clippers here. But I've always been so afraid to clip them, because he's so squirmy. I didn't want to cut his nails too short and hurt him. But now i'm feeling bad that I never clipped them. If I did, this wouldn't have happened today.
Anyways, thanks in advance to anyone who helps me! I just get stressed out over every problem!
