I have an extra large dog crate that is considered my bunnies 'room'. I have a playpen attached to it fortheir playyard... One of my bunnies peed outside their litterbox today. I was crouched in the playyard and leaning into the room to clean it up, Hugh tried jumping past me to get out and his front paw must have grazed the crate at its entrance. I finished cleaning and when I looked, he was licking his paw and there were a couple drops of blood on the ground.
Its bleeding at the base of one of his nails (the 'thumb' nail, the one on the back of his paw if that makes any sense). Its been ten minutes and he is still licking it, looks like its still red... No more drops on the ground though.
Should I take him to the vet? I never had a bunny bleed, so Im not sure if its something he'll take care of, or something that requires immediate medical attn.
Im sure he must be in great pain, I dont know if its my imagination, but he appears to be breathing a bit harder...
