Baz got his toe bitten tonight by Digit. The e-vet put him under and snipped part of his toe off and stitched it up. Baz immediately started gnawing on his paw so a make-shift e-collar was put on him. Of course now that I'm home, I have tons of questions.
-Baz is in a smaller cage now with the bare essentials in it. How long should I keep him in there?
-What can I do to help the foot stay covered/stitched/un-bleeding? I'll have blu-kote in a couple of hours.
-Is there anything else I can do help him heal quickly?
He's got Baytril and Metacam. I wasn't impressed with the emergency vet and would feel better getting advice from you guys! I know toes are lost and amputated and the injury truly is minor. I just want to be able to do what I can for him. Advice and input appreciated!
