Question
my rabbits finger nail fell completely off i mean there was no nail there at all not even a little piecem it was all gone what can i do everyone is scared half to death?

Answer
hello garinada

please try not to worry, this happens quite a lot with rabbits if the nails get too long and break or even if they get caught on something. Clean the nail with some warm water and make sure that the hutch is all cleaned out. keep a close eye on the nail and if it gets red and swollen then your bunny will need medical treatment asap. If there is no change to the nail then it should graw back in time.

hope this helps
