to at least consider a trip to the vet, i mean *doctor*!, if it's still looking/feeling bad by Monday (if not sooner) ... and remember to tell him/her that igs have *Gram Negative* bacteria cuz that'll make a difference in what kind of antibiotics they give you ...

and no, it may not *look* like much, but if he really chomped down on such an "unpadded" body part, like a finger, he probably hit bone and i KNOW that hurts like a B****** ... (yep yep yep)

i always approach iZ with the assumption that he is gonna try + bite me ... 99.3% of the time that's the farthest thing from his little green mind, but what that attitude does is remind me to have my forearm between him + my face when i first approach him ... or to have the fleshy edge of my hand be the 1st part of my hand to approach his face, not my fingers ...

and if i forget, i have a lovely 2x2" heart-shaped/ig-mouth shaped scar on my wrist to remind me ... *grin*
