My chin accidentally got his tail between the door to his cage when I shut it. I realized when it was halfway, enough to pinch him but he did not let out any noise. Picked him up and he was bleeding some but not bad. He let me touch it no problem and did not even flinch. (Makes me think it’s not broken). He’s still eating and running around. Was extending and curling his tail which I don’t think he would be doing if in pain. I called the vet and they were not super helpful but said if he’s acting normal he might be fine. Anyone go through something similar? He’s my baby so I’m kimda freaking out, but not rushing him to a vet due to his stress being moved. He does not like cars and doesn’t go to the vet cuz he is very healthy otherwise. So I don’t wanna stress him out more if I don’t need to.
