I took three leos to the vet today, one eye infection, and two swollen hemipenile bulges. Turns out that the swelling was caused by sperm plugs or seminosis. One, Saturn my male tremper giant was removed easily and without any worries. As the vet was removing the larger and more difficult one from Simba my beautiful male normal, he dropped his big fat gorgeous tail. The vet, tech, and me all yelled out when it happened. I know it wasn't the vet's fault, and he apologized up and down, but I am SOOOOO upset.:main_no:
UGH, he was 92 grams before the tail loss, and just as chubby as can be. Now he looks so pitiful. I know the procedure, I have read up enough on what to do, but of all the leos I have had for the last 5 years this is the first tail drop I have had. I feel so bad for him, not to mention having his vent traumatized to remove the sperm plug. I am worried about him. I have had him for four years and his is undeniably my favorite leo. The vet prescribed an anti-biotic cream for the area, as well as an oral antibiotic. My poor Simba!!!
