Well Wheeler appears to have a small hole in his leg that is pouring blood everywhere!!!! Im not sure how he got it but Im hoping someone can give me advise on what to do? So far we put a plaster on the actual hole and then bandaged it up. Will this be alright for him? Hes hasn't yelped or even whined so I dont think he's in a great deal of pain.  Hope somebody can help!

Personally, I would deal with it like a wound on anyone else. Apply pressure to it to help congeling. Once stopped, look at it again, see if you need to pack it with anything. Does it look it may be, or could get infected. If so, take him the vets straight away, they should have an out of hours number on the answering machine. As infection can take hold pretty quickly.
