I wondered if someone could tell me what you do any tort claws. Am i suppost to get them clipped (can I do that myself) or should Alfie be wearing them down himself because I am worried they are to long.

It's much easier and less stressful for him to wear them down himself- do you have some slate or similar in his enclosure so that he can wear them down. I wouldn't reccomend that you clipped them at home as they have a 'quick' and if this is cut they can bleed like mad! Much better to get your vet to do it, but if it's not *extremely* bad then it's much less stressful for them to do it at home.

Yes he does have slate in his encloser, although i think i might ad some more. I keep a lot of rabbits so i'm an expert at claw clipping so i suppose it seems strange not the clip them but im much happy to let him maintain them himself. Thank you
