Hello
I have a male 4 month old not yet neutered netherland dwarf rabbit.
Just a couple of hours ago, I picked him up to take him out of the room and just as I was about to bring him closer to my body, he jumped out of my hands. I am 5'8" and he fell on the carpet from my arms while I was standing. He landed on all four paws.
Now, he is not really using his right front paw and is limping. He still runs but not fast, eats, drinks, poops, and grooms himself.
I called a rabbit savvy vet and she said I can either come in right away or monitor the limping and the paw for the next 24-48 hours. She told me to give him a drop of childrens motrin which I did.
As of right now he is in his litterbox. He hasn't made any sort of noise as if he were in pain.
What do you guys think? I can't go to the vet until Friday...
Now he flopped on his side..the little bunny flops they do when they are happy or what not...
