Oh he's adorable! Maybe try putting this as a new thread re food as this one was for teeth probs and it may get missed. I know cats need food with enough taurine in it. Some feed raw and would perhaps give you some tips. Commercially produced food varies, and there is a new one that's...
Poor Luca is very stressed going to the vets. When Elmo had tooth out she ead not given metacam as vet said not recommended anymore..i looked into it and apparently so. No easy answers. Im so pleased you are managing your cat. I hate that they suggested returning Luca...they must reckon its bad...
Awww poor kittie. Did they do a blood test? Luca has had one but i was told it can bring back a false positive if vaccinated so swabs best. The vet said a general anaesthetic would be needed as she known 2 cats bite and swallow the swab! I refused it.
Is it manageable...just preparing if Luca...
Oh how sad. Strangely enough Elmo became ill on my birthday and died around first anniversary of my fathers death. It's too much isn't it? I'm hoping it all turns out well for you too.
Oh this is awful for you and Luca. He is young to have cancer surely.? I hope its more of a infection response. Ive only had my Luca 19 days and losing sleep with worry. Think I'm high alert after losing my beautiful Elmo in May.
How did it start in your cat start with it. My luca has no symptoms, vet noticed gingivitid on routine check. I guess if fvc is present it just gets worse? This is his mouth now.
Yes hopefully. If not I'd try contact a feline specialist. I have no faith in vets sadly. I get lucas results in 7 to 10 days. They also did gingivitis swab.
Just read your post with more detail on. Well if this vet is a dental specialist saying Luca only has gingivitis can't be right when he has sores and past ulcers. If his lymph glands are that big he's fighting something else surely? I'm a massive worrier and dont trust vets. Are you in US, im in...
Oh really! Can't believe they have the same name .
How old is he, and what did you use to treat the ulcers? Were the vets optimistic? Yes we need to keep in contact
Apparently calicivirus is often the cause in cats who have healthy teeth but gingivitis. Vet told me about the 3 cases she had seen, and the vet he saw when with RSPCA also said it was suspect and that's why they have paid for the test. He won't let me near his teeth so give him logic gel to...
