Just discovered during playtime that Stanley has a really bad in-grown toenail on one of his back feet. It is curling around, and it doesn't look like it's actually gone inside the skin yet, but it's pretty close. It doesn't seem to bother him right now, but with as fast as those grow, it will definitely become a problem.
I'm wondering how to best proceed? It's a pretty funky nail, and I don't know if I should risk trimming it if I might hurt his toe. Should I take him to the vet and have them do it? I'm assuming they might have to put him under to get this done. What do you think? I've never had to do this before...
