Hello! My name’s Alyssa and I’m the owner of a netherland dwarf named Moni.
Today, Moni had a bit of a mishap- she was caught in a glue trap that I had no idea was even set out because my father hadn’t bothered telling me about it. Nonetheless, I was angry. I immediately took it into my own hands to help Moni- I gave her feet (the only area affected with the glue) a massage with vegetable oil in order to loosen the remaining glue and get it off. I wiped Moni’s feet off with baby wipes after, only to find that I had made a bit of a mess with the oil. I took Moni to my room and attempted to dry off her feet with a mini fan in order to not scare her (I’m not sure how she’d feel about a blow dryer as she is very skittish and weary about loud noises) which didn’t make much of a difference. I wiped her feet with a cool, damp cloth as well but to no avail. Her feet and a tiny bit of fur on the sides of her tummy are still a bit oily- not necessarily drenched, but it is noticeably. Again, I used vegetable oil and she’s grooming herself as we speak.
As for her behavior, she is completely fine- still eating, drinking, hopping around like normal- if anything, I’m more worried about this than she is 😥
Any tips on what I can do, what I should do? Again, it’s only her feet that were affected and massaged with the oil.
