@DobieLover,I am so sorry that I keep forgetting to ask how Skittle's tail is coming along. Should be about time to get those stitches out.
The stitches came out Wednesday night. The skin is a little purple around the tip of his tail. The vet thinks it has a slight lack of blood flow. The end of his tail wasn't in the best shape to begin with.
The pathology report came back from Cornell. It was most likely a histiocytoma:
He's doing great. Thanks for asking about him, Becca.
