Hi there
Little tony hurt his front paw last night, i'm not sure how he did it, i'm still checkng the cage for sharp edges.
It's not bleeding out non stop, but every time he gets on the wheel, it starts bleedng again. I ended up removing the wheel, thought it would be better until it healed. Anyone ever got a hurt hedgie?
I'm scared it might get infected, since the wound keeps re-opening now and again. Any quick solutions so it WONT get infected? Is it ok for him to not have a wheel for a couple of nights, just until it gets better? I don't think its a really serious wound, but it could get bad if t gets infected or if it doesn't heal (its been at least 24 hours and its been bleeding still)
thanks,
XOXO
