Poor, sweet little Ari, who is only 3 years old, has the teeth of an old cat. When I brought him in for a re-check of his eye ulcer, the vet took out three front bottom teeth that he said were hanging on by a thread. I looked at his teeth while there and they are brown!!!!! :( So tomorrow he's going in for a teeth cleaning. Keep all fingers and paws crossed.

Aw, poor boy. We'll say an extra special prayer for Ari that all goes w/out a hitch.

I hope all goes well and Ari feels a lot better!

How is his eye doing, Donna?

Donna,

The dental treatment will make Ari feel so much better, I'm sure. Hugs and prayers to Ari and to you for helping him.

I hope that his cleaning will go smoothly. I bet he'll feel much better after this is over.

I just called the vet. He did great! I have to pick him up at 4 pm. I have a feeling his bad teeth were the reason he's so thin, because it hurt when he ate.

Can't wait to pick my boy!!

He's home and doing great. I spoke to the vet about his eye ulcer. She said it's on his cornea. I told her that it didn't seem to be bothering him. She said that it does bother him because he squints alot in that eye.

So...I think I'm going to look into IMOM. Cuz I have a feeling the bill is not gonna be cheap. I just want my boy to feel okay.

I'm glad to hear this his teeth cleaning went well and I hope that he'll now gain some weight and start eating much better.:) I also hope that his eye ulcer can be helped very soon.

kuhio will certainly post Ari's application here - you will get help from folks you know and some that you don't! :)

Hugs to Ari, and I hope he starts gobbling up his food. Maybe Jen's Mr Meow could give him some lessons! ;)
