Before I went to bed last night, I got the idea that I should inspect Darcy's claws. Normally, I really only look at them when I trim them and put softclaws on.
Anyhow, one of the claws that was missing a nailcap was split and very sore looking. I touched it and it started bleeding like crazy so I did the only things I could think of. I cleaned it up with Hydrogen Peroxide (I figured I would need stitches if I tried Alcohol) and then I took superglue and glued it together.
Was I wrong? What should I look for as far as infection? Do these things usually heal well?
The odd thing was that Darcy wasn't even limping.
