Are you SURE he can't reach you?

Well I am in front, so I guess if he really wanted he could cow kick me, not to mention the wall divider goes lower.

Thank you guys for all the great suggestions! I will start working my way closer and closer to his sheath. I can touch him anywhere else so hopefully that might work, he doesnt have a problem dropping, in fact it I scratch his butt he drops hahaha! But if that doesnt work it looks like I will try baby oil or dawn dish soap. Where do you get the demorsedan gel? And that is for a sheath cleaning correct?

You get the dormosedan from the vet, it's a sedative.

Ok thank you! Looks like I might need to call the vet out soon
