Winter.Frost,

Thank you for your response, I really appreciate it. The organizations Cuddle Coats (http://cuddlecoats.com/how-it-works.html) and the Fox Project (http://foxproject.org.uk/how-you-can-help/) were both suggested to me as possibilities for the donation of the tail and for my cash donation. I will likely end up sending the tail to Cuddle Coats and donating money to the Fox Project.

Your story about rennet reminds me of when I was seven years old and I found out that gelatin is made from cow bones and other animal parts right after I had eaten an entire box of Peeps marshmallows. I was crying all day and I felt so terrible that I had been eating non-vegetarian food for three years after I had become a vegetarian. At least avoiding rennet isn't so much of an issue for me now that I'm vegan. I know this is just another mistake just like that and that it's a lesson that I learned the hard way. Thank you for understanding and offering your advice. I am slowly starting to forgive myself...
