Well, I got her teeth trimmed, and her calcium problem handled, tonight I came in to find her tangled in her nest with her leg all twisted in ti and had to cut her out. There are several hours untill i can get my vet and he is normally out of town until Mondays.

I can get her to an emergency clinic, but the issue is what on earth do I do in the meantime? I am giving her lots of greens, calcium, and did a dose of liquid calcium tonight, as well as put her in a travel cage that will limit mobility in bed next to me.

Thanks for your help.

If she is in pain, she can be given INFANT IBUPROPHEN. If you can provide her weight I can give you the dose. It may help quiet her as well. If you have any Rescue Remedy, I would get some on her feet - it will absorb.
