If your bunny has sore hocks, these socks can help protect the skin and give it the chance to heal. These come in pairs so you will get 2 socks!
- Made from lightweight fleece with a bit of stretch to help slide your bunny's toes through.
- Curved ankle strap for a better fit
- Now with extra fleece layer on the sole but you can still add some of their loose fur to make it even softer.
- Machine washable
HOW TO PUT THEM ON:
1. Ensure all your bunny's toes are in the sock and then push them through until they stick out the end.
2. Slide the sock down the foot until it's easy to slip over their heel.
3. Add some fur inside if you want to and then do up the strap.
4. Make sure it's not too tight. Your bunny should still be able to hop around normally.
DISCLAIMER:
- It's important to consult your exotics vet first if you are concerned your rabbit may have sore hocks.
- Due to the fluffiness of your rabbits toes, you may have to gently squeeze them together to fit the sock through.
- Most rabbits will hate these at first. They will flick their feet and try to pull them off. It might take them a couple days to get used to them. Monitor them closely and make sure they're still able to hop around as normal. It might take a few tries to figure out the right tightness that stops them being flicked off but not so tight that it hinders their movement.
- We don't want to cause unnecessary stress to rabbits so we only recommend these as a last resort where flooring changes haven't worked or are not possible.
- It may take a couple weeks to months to see results - it depends on the bunny. Learn more about hock socks here chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/http://www.medirabbit.com/EN/Skin_diseases/Mechanical/Pod/Socks_rabbit.pdf
