Rex vs. a CRAB!?! part 2 The crab that we all thought had lefty had unfortunatly returned. i brought Rex in from the yard and noticed....BLOOD on his paws.unfortunatly, i was home alone. i took rex to the bathroom and rinsed his paws off. i saw kind of like small circular (not deep)cuts. kinda looked like scars. i caled my mom and she was 1/2 hr away but she was going to start for home in about 5-10 min (long line) so i called the vet and she said to put a small amount of Neosporin on each of the small cuts. (4 in total, 2 in each paw) they were not side by side. it was 1 on top of another on both paws (obviously the crab) so i waited for my mom to get back and when she did we took him back to the bathroom and did the neosporin and we also put a TINY bit of all natural aloe cream. he screamed :( but then he kind of moaned. now he is sleeping on me while i am making sure he doesnt lick the creams. BTW it stopped bleeding after i wahed it in the beginning. any other tips besides taking him to the vet?? the only vet my mom trusts is away |
:( o god somehow he managed to get a lick of it and he threw up twice. yuckkk |
Rex Poor baby...I hope Rex's paw is better soon. |
bummpppp...com on ppl i need advice |
Are you talking about those "things" that make mud mounds in the lawn? :confused: |
Since the vet said to put neosporine on the cuts I was thinking you can wrap her little paws so she wouldnt lick it off. You still need to watch her so she wont try to take the wrap off. I also was wondering what kind of crabs your talking about? |
1 Attachment(s) this is exactly what kind of crab . they come crawling into our yard from the beach. thank god he didnt get a deeper cut!!!!! :eek: |
ohh poor rex, i hope his cuts heal soon! eew that crab is gross! |
Awww, poor Rex! That sucks! Get well soon, Rex! |
i might go to the other vet tomorrow..MAYBE. we think we are going to go to petsmart they have the cone things so he can wear one until the cuts have time to dry up and heal. as a side note~ Val i luv ur new avator!! |
Oh my. Your lucky Rex didnt got hurt worst by the crab. I didtn know you live so close to the beach. |

Oh, you may want to put a little Hydrogine peroxide on it first to wash out the cut so there isn't an infection. Just get ready to blow on the boo-boo! Good luck. I'm sure he will be better. :getwellso |
DO NOT PUT PEROXIDE ON THE CUTS. Peroxide kills the cells and delays healing. Neosporin will take care of any infection. |
i cleaned it again today, put a little more neosporin and rubbed it in real good. i am going to petsmart and buying a cone and then i will do the bandaid |
Awww poor Rex! :( |
