Sebastian Going To The Vets Tonight

[Anikaca77]

Well another vet bill coming my way. Between trying to balance gas prices and food costs, and vet bills but I will do what I have to of course for my babies I took them in and they are my children since I don’t think my husband and I are going to have kids especially with 7 cats.

Sebastian is headed to the vets because he has these bumps sorta like pimples under his eye lid on the bottom, so far there are 2 and third one coming we think.

So I called the vets yesterday but they are closed on Wednesday's and they called me back and said they had an appointment tonight at 6:15 p.m. which works well for my work schedule and the secretary also said that the vet doesn't like to let bumps go for a while. So I'm hoping it's not going to be too expensive but we'll have to see. I'll do what I have to for my buddy-bud.

Ta ta for now, please say a quick pray for our buddy.

Thanks,
Melissa

I hope everything goes well for Sebastian (and meowmmy)! Maybe it's just sort of a type of acne! Let us know how it goes! ;)

The Pet Angels are setting a Vistors squad to keep Sebastien company when he goes into the White Coats. Its always nice to have company when a Pet goes into a place that has smells that make them nervous.

Of course we will think good thoughts and send up a prayer for Sebastian. Glad you noticed the problem; it's better to nip something in the bud early.

Let us know how it goes...........

A special prayer being said for Sebastian. My Boo had that years ago and it turned out to be a sty, easily healed w/some drops. Here's hoping that's all it is w/Sebastian, too.....

Poor Sebastian! Prayers are being prayed that whatever this is can be easily treated and will clear up before you have a chance to update us. Could I ask you to give Sebastian lots of comforting feel better lovies from me?

Hi All,

Well the vet said that she thinks is just some in grown hairs. She was thinking possible it could be a sty but with it being so close to his eye she doesn't want to treat it.

She said just to keep an eye on him and that eventually they will pop and heal over so it's just our buddy bud...she did mention his teeth so I'm starting to wonder if feeding them Purina Cat Chow is good for their teeth.

So far Sebastian and Hermes have gingivitis, Anika just had her teeth cleaned in February and had to have 2 teeth pulled.

Thank you all for your prays I really appreciate it. Next month Fiona is going to have to go to the vets, she seems to be clicking her jaw when my husband rubs one spot on her face any suggestions?

Thanks again,
Melissa

Purina has a dental formula, but it got a bad review: http://hubpages.com/hub/Purina-Veterinary-Diets-DH-Dental-Health-Feline-Formula-Dry-Food-Cat-Food-Review

My guys love Hill's Dental....you could mix some in with the Purina you use now. Even better, use it as treats. :)

Other good treats - MediTreats from your vet, Greenies.

Ask your vet about this. It's a bit more money - but think about how much a dental cleaning costs! Maybe ask to try this for a while before your kitties get checked for a cleaning.

Also, these are in Canada (happened to be the first link I chose), but you can find similar stuff in the US:

That's wonderful news! As far as the jaw clicking ... one of mine does that too ... it sounds more like he is grinding his teeth. I think it's just sort of a "ticklish" reaction. It wouldn't hurt to have it checked out though if you are concerned about it! ;)
