I know that I thought the same thing at the time, but the chewed tail pad was not a deep laceration, but a surface wound, and that is what the vet told me to do. I did keep applying the neosporin, and the tail healed but the pad was of course destroyed. I had a female who suffered a bite (kind of a hole) on her head from her mate, and I kept that moist with neosporin also, and it actually healed faster (even without a scab) than I'd expected, so I can't explain that, either.
