    I put my gerbil Zuri in a big bunny tube thing to carry them downstairs. I usually bring them down in my hand to put them in the cage but they were playing in the bunny thing and so I figured I would just bring them down on that. It's open in both ends and I guess while they were leaning over the edge to watch as I went downstairs they pushed eachother out, and they both fell. Pepper is fine, I checked, but now Zuri is limping. She's usually really skittish and stuff and now she just sits there and lets me pick her up and touch her broken leg (Gently, of course). It's not open, I checked, but it sure feels broken. It' her little wrist that broke. I had no idea they were this fragile! Anyways, I'm so scared, because I defiantly don't have enough money to take her to the vets, and I don't want to just leave her like that! I'm almost crying, I don't know what to do! Poor girl already lost her tail, she doesn't need to lose her paw!

    Yes. No toys until she heals. Nice clean, soft bedding. Make sure she eats. Don't give her a cast or any medication. I know what to do <3
