So now I feel horrible. I held a warm compress to it for a while. It seemed to be working. The shed started to come off. Most of it came off in fact. There was just a little left on the very tippiest tip of his tail. So I was letting him run his lower half through the towel. Maybe I pulled too hard or held too tight but the next thing I know the tip came off. It was literally just the very top tip. Just a pin head worth of blood, but still I feel heart broken. You can't tell, it was so little, but I feel so bad for the little guy. It had to have hurt. I put a bit of neosporin on it. The indentation is still there. Will that go away or does he risk losing that portion during his next shed? Will the tip of his tail grow back? Do I just keep applying neosporin for a few days? Anything else I need to do? Thanks again.
