I'm new here, and I was wondering if anyone could help me. I live on a farm in ND with 11 outside cats, most of which are wild, so we can't catch them to be fixed. But one of my kitties, Tiger, has a problem. He's 7 mo. old and for awhile he has had a broken tail. About last month though, his tail started to get a scab around it about 1 inch or so from the tip. But just recently, I noticed it started to actually break off a little bit, and now today, it's just hanging on by, like, a thread. He's gotten very angry at it (and me) and he bites it, growls at it..a little bit ago he even hissed at me which he's never done before! But i'm worried that if it breaks off or he bites it off, that he might bleed everywhere.
I also noticed that a little bit above his break, theres another scabby line and and like, 1 or 2 more dislocations or breaks. I'm taking him in to the vet on tuesday for him to get neutered, but might they have to amputate his tail, as well?
