Hi Samantha,

Have you tried calling your vet?  Ours local office has two vets and one is
always on call for emergencies.  When you call after hours the answering
machine gives you a number to call if it is an emergency.  Every vet is
different, but it might be worth a shot.

Subject: Help!! Broken leg!!

Dear List

Can anyone quickly give me some advice on caring for a gerbil with a broken
leg?

My local vet is closed at the moment, or I'd take her straight there, as I
think she's in a lot of pain. She's hopping about on her other back leg and
I've seen her eating and drinking, so hopefully she'll be okay.

Thanks!

Sam
