Sophia could use some good vibes today. This morning she was washing her face. She's a bit obsessive about that! Everytime she pawed her mouth she let out a loud mew. She's a talker and always mewing about something, but this was distinctly different sound and clearly unpleasant for her! When I lifted her lip, her little gums are all red and swollen.
Sophia has already lost many of her teeth. She was found as a stray with a horrible gum infection. That was almost exactly a year ago. It's part of why she lives with me. When I met her, her little face was all swollen and she was miserable. I kinda flipped out on the shelter board about why they were letting an animal in their care suffer. I felt a bit obligated after that and brought her home. She's become my little snuggle buddy.
My vet clinic keeps a couple slots open for emergency appointments. Sophia is off to the clinic at 2:30 today.
