  I keep my rabbit in my front yard and he got out for a few seconds. I got impatient when getting him back in, and jumped on his front paw accidentally. He doesn’t appear to be limping so I’m hoping I just hit his claws. Should I take him to the vet, call them, or nothing?

  Does it seem like he is hurt? Like, does he move normally, or does he avoid putting weight on the paw? Does he hold the paw up in the air (to avoid putting pressure on it)? Is he licking the paw? Will he come hopping for eat a pellet and take it if you offer one?

  It seems like he’s moving normally and he comes when I offer food and I haven’t noticed him licking it. He puts it on the ground as normal.

  Then I think he’ll be fine. Keep keeping an eye of course!
