[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 437575, member: 1991"] He might find walking sideways is a bit tricky... I suggest Wynter draws up a research protocol. Premise of the experiment - "Will Moose show an increase in aggressive behaviours after his leg is amputated?" Method: First observe the incidence of aggressive behaviours before surgery. How many times in a given period of time does Moose threaten the other rat? What sort of aggressive behaviour is it? Then after surgery, repeat the observations. What are the main behaviours? Is there a variation from the previous incidence? From the type of behaviours? She then writes up her findings. Yes, there was a difference; or no, there was no significant variation observed. Conclusions - surgery did/did not change Moose's behaviour with regard to level of aggression. Feed this back to the vet, who I am sure will be very interested. They don't often get this kind of report on the outcome of their surgery, especially for "pocket pets". Marg [/QUOTE]
