Creatures Small

This little hamster presented for a toe injury which the family attributed to a poorly designed exercise wheel. You can see that the tip of the toe is dead and part of it is only hanging on by a thread.
A quick snip and some surgical glue and the wound was closed. Not very high tech, but simple and effective. Satisfying too, as we are often limited in what we can do for these smallest of creatures.
Now to prepare for our 90 pound lab cruciate repair!
