Fidgets litter is a week old now. I check them daily and there has never been a problem until now. I spotted this baby (gorgeous little thing, who i now call Gimpy)... his/her foot is really swollen (filled with fluid). Upon close inspection, it appears some fine threads from the fluffy nest Fidget had made has wrapped itself around this poor little guys foot, causing it to swell.
I painstakingly sat with a magnifier and carefully unwrapped the threads, and i am hoping the fluid will drain. This baby is still using it's foot as a normal baby would, but i'm naturally really worried.
What do you think?
