I think there is something I never told you about Magoo!

Christa I had no idea Brodie's was broken too! If I missed that somewhere then I apolgize. Poor little guy! It sounds much worse than Magoo's. Magoo doesn't seem to be bothered by his, at least not that I can tell. He doesn't like me touching it but I don't think it's because it hurts. I think he is just a bit ornery!
Poor little Brodie!

I think I've only briefly mentioned it. It's never been much of a problem. It doesn't seem to hurt when we touch it. Since he can move it at the base, the vet doesn't think he'll have any problems. And since the tip moves, there must be some blood flow through the broken part. It's just soooo stiff!

It's cute when he wags it back and forth . . . Josie sways hers like the beauty that she is and his looks more like a puppy dog tail! LOL

Christa you have to get a picture of it and I will do my best to get a picture of Goo's. Deal?

Crooked tail, eyeless face, it doesn't matter, we ALL still love our Magoo.

ABSOLUTELY!!!!!

My friend has a cat with a broken tail. It's not broken where Magoo's is, but it really doesn't bother her. After a while, whether it's splinted or not, the fracture heals. Sometimes, like in humans, they can develop arthritis in the spot. But as long as he's the happy go-lucky guy that the Gooster is, I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure if touching it DOES bother him, he'll let you know.

HUGS AND KISSES TO THE GOOSTER ON VALENTINE'S DAY!!!

I would tend to think it is healed and "ok" now. Of course, if it worried you, get it checked out.... maybe just ask about it at his next regular white coat appt! Remember my foster Griffin with the severely broken tail ... gave him character, but it sure felt funny when you ran your hands down his tail!
