Storm Gets His Teeth Cleaned On 5-5-08- Update On PTH BLOOD TEST Results 5-13-08

KAK,

It's good that Storm is having the dental procedure as it is vital to his overall health.

As for Mom ... well I know your concern. Anytime they have to be on anesthetic is a worry. I'm sure the procedure will go well and he'll feel so much better.

Try not to worry too much and give that boy a big hug for me.

It will be so wonderful when the dental is over and done with and Storm can begin to feel good again. I'm sure everything will go well and he will be home with you soon! I hope his appetite picks up this coming week.

All my best wishes that Storm's teeth cleaning goes well! He'll feel better afterwards, I'm sure.

Fister may have to go for dental soon, and I too worry about the anesthesia, but they'll have to have it, or the vet will end up in hospital. I usually ask my vet to give him as little as possible.

We're sending positive thoughts.

Fister and Randi

Tigris and Filou send their best wishes to Storm and say they know exactly what is going to happen and it is an offence against cat independence!

One thing that I do like about my current vet's office is that he has an anesthesiologist working alongside him. Until transferring all my records to his office, I didn't realize that many vets administer the anesthesia themselves. I like the fact that my vet does the surgery and the anesthesiologist does her job. That way my vet can focus on getting the job done quickly. Perhaps this is the case in your vet's office, too.

Good luck Storm. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers tomorrow.

I'll say try not to worry Tracey but I know that is easier said than done.

Thanks everyone. I'm sure that everything will go well. I've never had any of my cats teeth cleaned at this vet clinic before because I've only been going to this vet for a little over a year now so I don't know what to expect. I was told that the vet techs will be doing the cleaning and I scheduled him for a Monday because this is my vets surgery day so she'll be able to oversee everything.

Storm has been crying for food so I know he's hungry. I put him in his carrier while I fed my other furkids their first small feeding this morning and poor Starr saw the carrier and he hid because he thought it was for him. Little does he know that both he and Sky will be going to visit their holistic vet later today for rechecks. Yes, it's a cat vet day today. I'll update you probably tomorrow evening to let you know how everything went with Storm's cleaning.

You have had your hands full w/furkids today, KAK. I hope this have gone well with you (I'm off to read your next post next.)

Warm regards,
me and the furkids

PS Storm is in our prayers. ~~~ healthy vibes ~~~ too!

I just received an e-mail from my vet. This is what she said:
Hi there !
I hope Storm is doing well.
The biopsy I took of the gum indicates inflammation, with no evidence of cancer. I would like to recheck Storm in one month, to look at that area again and make sure it has resolved.

So thanks everyone who sent some PT prayers his way. Now hopefully his PTH Blood Test will also be fine.
