which can also be very dangerous. Angelo just had 3 of them lanced, and the one on his nose was the worst. That one and another, under his eye, were eating up his bones. He apparently got an infection and stopped eating/drinking. The vet said he is the most emaciated ig he has seen. He now has 3 holes that are left to the heal. The one on his nose is the biggest and deepest. I intend to take some pics soon to post. As a side note, altho I suspected the other 2 bumps on his face were abscesses, I thought his nose damage was from rubbing on a cage. While is recovering now, slowly, I can clearly see he is still suffering and who knows how long he suffered before now.

It will do your friend a world of good to read, read, read but the first thing she can do (and must do IMHO) is find the closest town with a vet and get this poor baby there asap.
