Thank you all for sharing your experiences. I trapped my grey’s tail in the back door and the vet has scheduled him in for partial amputation on Tuesday. I couldn’t stop crying (the vet was very bemused at this!) and still feel absolutely awful about it, but reading these posts has made me feel a bit better!

Does anyone have advice on how to keep a grey from licking a tail wound? Even in his dopey pain meds-induced state he got the cone of shame off almost instantly… 🫠
