Ok, soooooooooo... the little dark mark that looked like a bruise is completely gone! HUGE SIGH OF RELEIF! He is his usual happy curious sweet little self. His tail looks normal and healthy, and no trace of the dark mark that was there this morning! So, if it was a bruise it cleared up super quick!?!? It must have been something! That was exactly where his poor little tail was pinched, there’s no chance it was a smudge of poop or dirt or anything else, it definitely came from being pinched in his viv door. It was not a hard pinch but still, enough for a mark to appear within 5 mins or so, and last for at least the next hour. No clue what it was, and I will for sure monitor for the next few days, maybe week. Possibly month! Just to be safe. Though, I do check my boys’ tails often just as part of their regular care. Anyways Brandon, thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart. I really appreciate you reaching out, and you were kind even when I felt like I was a horrible monster (I still do but Spike is ok so I feel slightly less monstrous!). It meant the world to me
I was terrified and felt really alone and it was excruciating having no answers or allies or anything at all, until you came along. You helped me feel calm, and just not completely alone. Hat was huge for me today. So thank you!!! ??
