        Hi guys, 

        Gigantore  (My 15lb. 8 month old Flemish) is starting to get soreness and bare fur on his hind legs.  I was going to make him a bunny bandage to give him some comfort and let the hair grow back so his hocks don’t get rubbed raw and hopefully preventing ay real issues.  The issue I’m having is that I only have enough fur to pad one of his hind legs.  Anyone know of a decent substitute for his other foot (or possibly when I re-wrap them.)?

        I went out of town last week and his bunny sitter had a lot of tile floors, which is how I’m assuming the issue started in the first place with him sliding around some.  Any tips on how to help this issue as well would be great.

          Moleskin. It is cotton fabric used for blisters normally from walking a lot. Dr. Scholl’s has a line of this fabric. Maybe it will work.

            Thanks, I’ll take a look at that.

            I’m also having a hard time finding something for him to lay on in his cage.  He won’t lqay on anything, he just picks it up and throws it in the corner.  Any tips there?
