Hoping and praying your wee friend is doing ok.Well, the appointment with an emergency vet didn't turn much up. Nothing they can rule out or diagnose without blood tests, which would have cost $500. It was $170 just for the examination itself. The doctor who examined him found a heart murmur and saw how bad his teeth are, but I can't afford the antibiotics and pain meds she wanted to prescribe, either.
So he's back home and I just need to do what I've been doing— caring for him as best I can, and keeping an eye on him. No more dry food because he can't chew without severe pain. I know what that's like, I had a wisdom tooth with a huge hole in it, nerve exposed, for a couple years. Worst pain of my life. Breaks my heart that my cat is experiencing that and there's nothing I can do except have him euthanized when it becomes too much for him.
But for now he's eating, drinking, and acting (mostly) like normal. I'm not really religious but I know many of you are. Prayers for my little buddy would be appreciated
How is he today?
