Odd Tail

[ohlalaliz]

At my Leo's previous home, his tail had fallen off because he got absolutely terrified of a cat.

It grew back, but not completely.
It's kind of like a cute little triangle on his butt

Is that normal? Or should it have grown back completely?

This poor little thing had such a crappy life ):
Atleast he's okay now

If anyone had read my previous posts about his eye being puffy. It HAS gone down, but not by too much. He can open his eye, but he usually just sortof squints unless he's too excited about me bringing him fresh food and water

Any last reccomendations before spending a gazillion dollars at a vets office?

Please and Thanks!

Can you attach any pictures?

Depending on where the tail broke off, some times it won't grow back to it's "normal" length.

probably normal. We have one like this too.

Well, it healed up absolutely fine, and he has no problems with it. It's just much shorter than the average Leo's tail.

I'm far more concerned about his eye than his tail

What are you doing for the eye?

 

[ohlalaliz]

I've soaked him in some warm water a few times to see if that will help, and I think it has a little. But it's still puffy. Someone reccomened regular Salene eyedrops to try and flush it out but I figured it might harm him.

 

[Saphira]

sterile saline like contact solution will not harm the eye. It might help it.

My cat has an eye allergy and received basic saline drops. it can be used for any animal supposedly. Should I try it? Or is it too risky?

 

[Saphira]

should be fine as long as you don't put the tip of that bottle into your cats eye, I would think.

Haha, too impossible! He get's too mad to let me get close enough. Thank you so much. I'm going to try it
