As the vet advised I took the bandage off and inspected her foot today. The toes are no longer stuck in curled up position, but it seems that she is basicaly paralysed. I am giving her lots of vitamin B complex supplement and an extra does of B-2 which is apparently the key one but there seems no improvement.
I managed to re-bandage her single handed. I don't know if that reflects that she is getting weak and couldn't fight me, or that she is easily distracted by mealy worms.
I have made an appointment with the vet for next week so she can assess and I fear I may need to make the decision to euthanize her at that stage. I do not think she is in pain, but her quality of life is beginning to suffer because she just cannot keep up with the others or what she wants to do. To watch her try and scratch in the bedding and just fall over brings me to tears each time I see it.
She is beginning to be less active.
Fortunately nobody is picking on her, but it is still pretty sad to watch.
Hoping for a miracle here.
