First off, I did contact an emergency vet. They told me it was not an emergency and I should wait a few days. I AM A HIGE WORRY WART. Even with my not furry kids…LOL!
Yesterday we had Bun Jovi in his cage for around 2 hours while we went to a birthday party. He normally free roams most of the day. When we opened his cage and he hopped out, my husband noticed he was keeping his R hind leg elevated and not putting it down much. He is eating, going to the bathroom normally and acting like his goofy self but I can tell (as his momma) that his leg hurts. I have lightly gone over the whole leg feeling any differences between the 2 and he doesn’t mind me checking, I feel no difference. I have checked his toes, nails and nothing there either. The 2 vets I spoke with believe it’s a pulled muscle, but he is the first bunny I’ve owned in a while and have never experienced this….I’m just worried about his fluffy butt. Any help or suggestions?
