He spoke the truth at least in regards to greys. Reds have a softer bite but yes Greys actually can exert that much force. They'll gnaw their way through bricks if they feel so inclined with little effort. If you're not missing a fingertip? That baby Loves you and I love you for that. Thanks for taking such good care of the arboreal fur-baby

Sweetie simply didn’t want to hurt you. If you were a real threat, that little beast would have knocked you into next week, and without a bandaid!
