Kittens can get respiratory infection pretty easy. His eyes look clear. When did it start? Is he digging at the base of his tail?

Congrats on the new lil pal, B.
Simon's gotten a lot bigger since the last time I posted his photo back on page 44.

Thanks. It’s hard. Took his cone off to eat and he got a hold of his tail. He be wearing cone a long time. Hope it can heal.
Wow 4Matic I'm surprised he's so calm about the cone of shame. Hopefully it will help break the cycle for him.
He kinda likes the cone. It keeps him calm. The Gabapentin helps. He loves that stuff. I hand feed him.

Definitely. He still wants the tail. It’s tough.
Good news and bad news. Bad news: He figured out how to get to his tail with the cone on. Good news: Tail is not infected and he is just licking it; not biting. Still might need surgery.
He gets a bigger cone today and a refill of his happy juice.
Thanks dj.
Vet recommended sock on the tail. Bigger cone will not fit. Maybe try blow up ring if this no good. Very trusting cat. He is so sweet.

Good picture
Sock is working for Chao. He can’t tell it’s his tail (yet).
Rooting for Chao.

Mr Chao purred for the first time ever afaik and he is happy without anxiety medication. Gobbling food! His tail is stable but it is still way to early to know if it will heal without intervention. He is a joy to help. So gentle and trusting.
Mr Chao has had a couple stress seizures. Can’t say I blame him... He is still happiest with his cone and sock on. He has a lot of skin bumps and sores that I treated with oil and he is eating mostly wet food. His fur is getting better. Still not sure about his outcome.
