swollen ankle

[Carolyn0483]

Sonic's ankle is swollen with scabs on it, presumably from biting at it, he still moves it, so it isn't broken. He hardly favors it. Do you think it's just sprained? Any home remedies to get the swelling down? If it gets larger we're taking him into the vet.

He needs to go to the vet. Nobody here can assess his leg without seeing it.

If he is biting on his leg, his leg is hurting him. He needs a vet.

He's going to the Flash and Thelma memorial rescue on Thursday, and he is going to take him for us. We've planning to find him a better home for a while, and it turns out that they are coming down on Thursday, so he is going to pick him up.

Vet. Please. It is the only way to go.

Flash and Thelma is a wonderful rescue and Sonic will receive excellent care for the rest of his life there.

That's what I thought and we are thrilled that we can still visit from time to time. Thank you!

What wonderful news on all fronts! He'll get an excellent new home that you've been hoping to find, veterinary care for his recent problem, and you can still visit! Wow.

We passed him on today, he was very kind, and Sonic (who will soon be renamed ) will be heading to the vet on Monday.

I'll keep you updated!
