In Reply to: Amazon dropped his tail today :-( posted by eyespy on August 08, 2002 at 13:36:42:
I didnt know a tail could drop without being held by someone...
The same thing happened with Thorn.My son was chasing him (!!!)and held him by the tail.A new and big tail regrew almost the same size of the old one.Thorn was 11 months when that happened so for sure Amazon will have a new tail!!

**************************************************
:I feel like the worst humommy in the whole world. It's a gorgeous day here, so we went out to sit on the lawn, with Amazon secured by a hip leash.
:A loud motorcycle went by, and Amazon started to run. When she got to the end of her leash, the tail wiggled like crazy and dropped off.
:I know he can do just fine without it and being so young, it might even regenerate somewhat, but I can't help feeling I failed Amazon. All that beautiful striped tail was my responsibility and I didn't make him feel safe enough to keep it intact.
:Amazon seems just fine, though, floating gently in a Betadine bath. We already had a vet appointment on Monday, so I just plan to keep the end well coated with Neosporin and a bit of surgical glue to keep it clean and dry.
:It's just all so upsetting, going outside with a gorgeous little 14 inch iglet and coming back inside with only 8 5/8 inches left.
:I think I'm going to have a long cry, and then invite some friends over to bury the tail by Amazon's favorite climbing tree.
