alfies limping

[reiki angel]

had a good look in his back paw tonight cant feel or find anything but he is limping , he still running round like a loony and is out when he is out he s walking on the pavement and the grass , he isnt poorly and is eating fine but hides his paw underneath him if you try to look at it , any ideas of what i can do until i can get him to the vet ?? thanks love ruthie xx

try sticking his paw in warm salt water. that will clean it up a bit and if he has a cut will help it heal. he may have caught a claw? pepper was limping last weekend but by monday was fine again. they can get aches and pains just like us.
hope it clears up soon.:044:

Was going to suggest the salt water too. When Holly catches her nails she has a really pronounced limp. Let us know how he gets on xx

Hope the salt water does the trick :044::078:

If he's running around like a loon outside it doesn't sound too serious hopefully...hope he's better soon and you get to the bottom of it :044:

awww poor pawly boy...

Jarv was limping last week - he had a small sharp flint embedded in some dried mud between his pawpads...he is really prone to dried/mud/hair/thorns matted in his feet, and with this muddy weather he is stoically putting up with paw washing and paw inspection most nights....

the washing may loosen anything Alfie may have in there and it's often easier to inspect their paws while they're being washed...

hope he's ok
