Bunny injured

Question
Hi Amy,
my bunny jumped off my shoulder an hour ago. and when it started walking his left hind leg doesn't touch the ground. i am wondering if it is broken or sprained.

thank you,
Lucy

Answer
I am sorry I can't really give you a  diagnosis, however if your rabbit jumped from a distance of about 5 ft, and is now limping and not putting any weight on his leg, you should probably get him into a vet just as soon as you can.  This is quite a distance for a rabbit to fall, and their bodies just aren't built for that kind of impact.  Even if his only outwards symptom is limping he could have internal injuries you might not be aware of.  Try to keep him comfortable and still as much as possible tonight and call your vet tomorrow

Good Luck!
Amy
