Aeryn has injured herself, either sprained or broken her paw, I am certain it's 'just' badly sprained, but obviously there is a chance it could be broken.
She's trying to use it, using it to hold food and to help her when clambering around. It's a bit swollen but not discoloured or anything, she doesn't seem to be in any pain either. Last night it was a little more swollen but it's gone down.
Ratty people on a rat group I'm on are saying to leave her, she'll be fine in a couple of days and this type of injury is better left to heal itself. This morning there is no change though and obviously it's the weekend, if I don't take her to the vet today she'll be waiting until Monday.
But I really don't want to stress her out more by getting her to the vet, she's already upset that she's having to stay in the tiny hospital cage!
