This is CRAZY!!!!!

Good to hear The mouth hanging open, head tilted to the side thing is a bit worrying. But the fact that he was hissing and striking it good news...

People aroung here go out of their way to hit cats and dogs in the road (no kidding... seen it happen). So I totally know what you mean.

Thanks for giving him someplace warm... even if he doesn't make it, he'll at least be comfortable.

Its weird because when I picked him up off the road, he was holding his head up fine, he was moving alot when he was in the bag in the room while I was getting the tank setup. But now his head just hangs. Hes moving the lower half of his body a bit (not moving around the cage) and seems to be breathing normally. Maybe he injured himself somehow when he struck at the bag and got his teeth stuck?????

It's possible... if he pulled too hard trying to get unstuck from the bag, maybe he hurt himself.


If he makes it through the night, I'd definitely try to get him to a vet. Even if he's physically okay, he might be carrying something from his time roaming free. Personally---and this is just me---if he makes it through the night and seems to be resting easily, I would leave him alone for a few days, let him calm down while keeping a good eye on him, then try to get him in somewhere (just make sure you clean your hands, utensils, etc. thoroughly after you handle him).

I'll have my fingers crossed for him!

I wish you the best of luck, sounds like hes in good hands. On a positive note if he survives and revives you will have a RTB!!!
