Hi all,
My furbaby loves running on his chin spin at full tilt and he's a little fatty so he does have calluses and a bit of "flipper foot". I worry that he will develop bumblefoot so I've been rubbing vitamin E oil on his feet once daily for the past 2 weeks. He pretty much hates me now and doesn't want to come out EVER :( he just hides in the corner when I open the door and stick my hand in because I keep putting this nasty stuff on his feet.
He doesn't have a wire floor cage, but he does pee sit sometimes in his little litter box which I change when I see the shavings are soaked and he has marble tiles to sit on. I tried to take pictures, but you know how wiggly they are. He doesn't have any problems and he grooms normally, doesn't act like he's in pain, jumps around and still runs like crazy. I just don't want to traumatize him with a trip to the vet (though with the daily vitamin E, I think I'm doing that already). He usually gets a dust bath daily, he doesn't stay in long, maybe 5 minutes max, because we live in humid Hawaii (he's never gotten dry ears or anything).
Any input is appreciated!
