    Default Sebastian: Nerve twitching in paralyzed legs

    Hi all. So my Sebastian has been experiencing some nerve twitching in his legs and tail today. He seems bothered by it, and so am I. Early on I put together a medical kit for him. So I have gabapentin on hand. However it is a whopping 800 mg. Can this be dosed for him? He is 350 grams. Also JUST noticed that he has some scabbing on his hind leg and foot so I guess he began to chew. Uuugh. Help please! ShoulD I be as concerned as I am?? I love my little baby. 💜💜💜🐿☮️ THANK YOU IN ADVANCE❤️

    Chewing can become a big problem. It usually denotes feeling, itching or pain. Hopefully some TSB experts will post soon. Send a PM Tubedriver , he might be able to give advice...

    Sebastian--
    in the photo of MILAGRO---that silver "stuff" under his front claws , is about 9 layers of duct tape.Milagro he was a SERIOUS biter....and every day --it seemed --I had to reinforce my glove fingers with more & more tape.
