You know, I was thinking about Birdie last night and I was thinking that what might have happened is that when he was bitten, either a nerve or a muscle was severed and that's why his tongue doesn't work - poor little guy. I don't know if you've all come to that conclusion already.... But maybe it's something that just a minor little sir-jury can fix.

But what I was really wondering.....has Birdie been tested for all the nasty kitty diseases? I was just wondering because it sounds to me like what Birdie needs is a kitty friend. One that he can snuggle with and one that will help him groom himself. The other kitty might really like it because he'll get all Birdie's slobbered leftovers, and Birdie will like it because he'll be clean so maybe he'll stop pulling his hair out?

Anyway, just some thoughts I had. Still hoping and praying that his little tongue starts working.....soon!
