A little reassurance..
Noticed that Bug has been licking her back paw all day, but she got really worried when I tried to check it just managed to have a look at it while she's asleep and found this!! Looks very sore, think I might just have been a cut that she's constantly picked at and opened up? Any thoughts?
I've put some manuka honey on it, and I'm trying to distract her from licking it too much.

Ooh Rach that looks sore, does look like a cut thats she has reopened. Would say just do as your doing trying to distract her it probs needs air to it though to dry it up. Poor Bis hope it heals soon xx

Yeah that does look sore... Poor Bis
I would wash it in mild salt solution and dry it well. Keeping her from licking it isn't going to be easy though. Hope it heals quickly Rachel.
