Yesterday I came home to find my mouse's tail stuck in the small space where the wire part of its cage meets the plastic bottom. The gap was maybe 1 millimeter wide so I'm thinking she got it caught in there and struggled quite a bit. Anyhow, her tail was obviously cut but not bleeding and the bit of the tail below the laceraton looked dead. I cleaned her off and, apart from her tail, she looks pretty good (the first thing she did was run to her wheel and start running). When I checked on her this morning, the dead bit of tail was gone (I think she either chewed it off or it fell off); she doesn't appear to be in any sort of distress and the tail doesn't look infected. I guess i'd just like some advice about how to care for it, what to watch out for, etc.
Thanks in advance!
