Tinkasite was out for a run in the wood on her birthday and whilst jumping over a log caught her back and ripped a large hole in the skin over her back. She was very brave but with it being caused by being impaled with a branch it was likely a to become infected. She was taken to the vets who realized the wound was much bigger and deep than originally though. Under anaesthetic she had the wound flushed out, drains placed, stiches placed and started on antibiotics then was protected by bandages and a medical suit. In spite of a lot of home care, cage rest and antibiotics the wound struggled to heal as it was over a very mobile area of the back. She visited the Firs for Phovia treatment and after the first treatment was able to stop the antibiotics and have the stitches removed. After the second treatment she no longer needed the body suit or any bandages and is now back to her normal happy bouncy self although still a scar to show for her birthday experience.
