Tail

I almost forgot to post about Dude’s tail. When the vet was performing surgery he was pleasantly surprised he was able to salvage his tail, minus some tissue. The doctor was able to trace the drain track down from the surface to the other end and found that it was being kept open by hair that was growing inward into the cyst. A similar deal to what happened with his eyes with the hair growing inward into tissue. The vet sent off a biopsy of the tissue to confirm his suspicions but is fairly confident the problem is taken care of now. His butt and three paws have large shaved patches on them and look red and angry. He seems to be feeling better today, although he’s obviously not 100% yet. Hopefully he’ll have a speedy recovery!
