Help! I'm an elementary school teacher who has a ten-year old leo that has been the BEST class pet ever this year. About two weeks ago, it shed but didn't get the very end of his tail off. I tried using paper towels to add moisture, put him in my sink with a tiny bit of water, and tried to help him by trying to take the skin off myself. No good. About a week ago, I noticed that the tip of his tail looked like it was dead and broke off. I feel awful and don't know what I should do... will it come off by itself? Should I try to cut/pull it off? Should I take him to the vet? I just don't want him to be in pain, or to drop his entire tail if he feels threatened (if I try to take the end off myself.) Any ideas? Thanks.
