After everything going so well for Cookie yesterday, I woke up this morning to find blood in her cage. I checked her prolapse right away and it was bleeding quite a bit and had what looked like a bite mark in it. I used cooled, boiled water to bathe it then smothered it in petroleum jelly. Then I got a cotton bud (q tip) and gently pushed it back inside her ( it's exactly what the vet did yesterday)then bathed it again. She was grinding her teeth quite a bit afterwards and was very quiet but I've kept an eye on her all day and now she seems fine. Have I done the right thing or should I take her back to the vet? Up to now the prolapse has stayed inside and her bottom is clean so the bleeding has stopped and she's not grinding her teeth now, in fact when I let her out for playtime she was binkying everywhere lol.
I can't beleive she's bitten it after leaving it alone all week, do you think maybe the vet prodding at it yesterday has irritated it and that's why she did it?
