It looks like an ulcer. It could be from a bite or something going on with his teeth.
Sent pictures to vet and they said possible ulcer ot tooth or gum issue
Snowball is 12yrs old this 15th this month
I know something has to be done
Cause he's probably in pain
So something will be done
But I just looked and that pain medication is out of date like way over a yr
Now dont know what to do
To help with his pain til tomorrow:(:whitecat:
