Foot injury?

[toyzbox]

One of my Comets has been limping for a few weeks now. But I looked at her foot and leg to see if I could find an injury of some kind.
No luck....But she would stand on one foot or limp like crazy and she always wants me to carry her. I could be crazy but I swear it's because it feels better to be off her feet. Now it looks swollen and she will not let me touch it. I still don't see anything other than the swelling. Any ideas? I think she is starting to loose weight.

Give it a good soak and clean it off then see if you can find a hard scab under there someplace. It sounds like it may be bumblefoot. There are several good threads on how to treat it and I think one of them is in the FAQ section.

I'm sorry...I should have said she is 9 months old. Can they still get bumblefoot at that age?
But I will soak tonight. thanks Kitty
