The Good News is thier teeth are clean. The Bad News is that thier teeth problems are chronic and will never be over. He sent home meds to try but the recommended meds have steroids and hes reluctant to use them. I wish I could remember what the disease was but its a big long name.
Anyways they are home and Joseph can eat dry food, if its wetted or is small like Kitten Food. Precious wont eat canned so its Baby Kitten Food for her from Royal Canin.
My Best Friens are home and I know that the Found Cats and Porch Angels are here to comfort them. I know Shemp Angels with his Precious and I wish I could send Joseph to California for some R & R with HH Lady Edwina Rose.

Kisses and snuggles to JJJ3 and Precious. I am glad that they are home and with clean teeth anyway. I hope that they are OK with their new foods. Can you dampen Temptations? What does JJJ3 think?

Actually JJJ3 is crunching his Temptations now and is happy again. I know that some soft treats are coming from his Dear Friend and I hope that that will help.
Hes going on an Innova and Science Diet Canned Diet so that will help he and Precious.
I will not skimp on my Cats health.

Glad they are home but I hate to hear their problems are cronic.. I hope they can still eat what that enjoy at least every now and then.

Gary - was it stomatitis? A couple of PT cats have had that. Antibiotics are sometimes used - I think? :confused:

Glad they are back home. I hope they are feeling better soon and that the chronic problem isn't too chronic for them.

We have a few like that ourselves. Always makes me wonder why some have these issues while others do not. We have one cat, Bailey, who is down to only 2 teeth. They seem to eat and get along fine without them. :)

John has one tooth and hes excellent. Its odd to see him eat with the side of his mouth but from day one he made it clear he was eating the Dry Food he had always eaten.
And Joseph and Precious took thier meds with no problems and devoured thier Royal Canin Baby Kitten Food on a Bed of Merricks Southern Chicken. Tonight is some Beef and Cheese Soup with Sauasages sliced and diced.
I will see them through this I PRAY!!

Is the disease Feline Odontoclastic Resorptive Lesions (aka Neck Lesions)? If so, I have 4 with it; basically, they resorb their own teeth and are MUCH happier when the nasty mess is pulled. Jazz has gained about 6 pounds since his last pull, in the Spring. He now has 1 fang and a couple of teeth, but he says better to have no teeth than ones that hurt!!! :D

I'm sure that Joseph and Precious feel much better now that they're back with their Dad. Gary, under your watch there's no doubt that both will be just fine! Would you deliver some scritchies and tummy rubs to them from their fan in Trenton?

YAY!!! Catmandu, could you please give some skritches and tummy rubs to them (and the other kitties) from their fan in Chicago, too?
