Posted by: Sasheena at Tue Oct 5 08:29:19 2004 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Sasheena ] If I was in your situation, and didn't have a good vet I could take her to (or couldn't take her to one due to monetary constraints) then what I would do is keep her on VERY clean substrate, probably paper towels. Allow her a large water dish to bathe in, but change it frequently. Make sure she has a WARM spot, they use the heat to heal. Treat the worst injuries with neosporin. Wait a couple of weeks and then give her some food item that is at most 1/2 the size of her largest part.... if she is adult, that would mean feeding her fuzzies, if she's still small (less than 2 feet) I would feed her pinks. Large meals will cause her skin to stretch, but if it's healing, it will retard the healing process. I'd feed her once every ten days or so. She'll shed very frequently as her skin heals, so expect that in addition to everything else. Change her cage EVERY time it's dirty, and her water daily, cross your fingers, and see if she lives. | ||
