Archer now has a shorter tail. He had to have the end of it (about a quarter) amputated on Wednesday. He just jumped up on the couch with me and I give him some cream cheese from my bagel. Then as I was looking at him I saw something on the end of his tail and realized to my horror that it was the bone on the end of his tail that I was seeing. The flesh and hair were completely gone from the end. I picked him up and ran back to my Dad to look at it. We rushed him to the Vet and the doctor saw at him right away. We have no idea what happened to him or what caused it. He didn't seem to be in any outward distress and we believe that it must have happen earlier that morning. He is doing well and is currently in the vet's care. I am sick over the whole thing, I hope to never see something like that again. The imagery won't leave me alone. :( I'm just glad my mom and sister didn't have to see it. He is such a sweet boy and is so proud of his tail, it is just not fair.
