Andy had a setback πΏ
Andy endured weeks of treatments for his burns and infection. Finally months later he was given a clean bill of health. However, something wasn't right with Andy's tail, he was constantly chewing on it and made it bleed, his mom believes he chewed the tip off!
After consulting with his vet, it has been determined that Andy has nerve damage to his tail that is beyond repair and the best thing for him is to remove his tail.
Andy is home after surgery and he is doing great!

Andy is a Fighter!
Andy is a Fighter!
Tiny Andy is a Fighter! Andy was lucky, most of his tail has healed, only a part of the tip of his tail died and naturally fell off. Andy has made a full recovery and is getting so big! His mom says he is full of energy and loves to get into mischief. Thank you to every one who cared about the little guy.
Andy's Progress
Andy's progress
Andy's check up went well, he has been given another course of antibiotics to clear up the infection at the base of his tail. The veterinarian needs healthy tissue in order to suture it up after he removes Andy's tail.
Andy's savior and new mom said he is eating and drinking and definitely feels more comfortable. Andy is finally starting to act like a kitten - playing with his toy mouse and ball. Andy now has a surrogate kitty mommy named Claire, who is helping take care of him.
Andy will have another check up once he has finished his second course of antibiotics and hopefully at that time his surgery will be scheduled.
