Sorry for the delay. I didn't get home with Storm until 9pm last night. By the time I fed my cats and myself and did a few other things I was ready for bed and just too tired to get on the computer.

My vet called me yesterday to let me know that everthing went well. Storm had moderate dental tartar with severe gingivitis. Two minor,loose teeth were extracted to eliminate oral pain and infection. His remaining healthy teeth were ultrasonically scaled, polished and treated with antibacterial oral rinse. He doesn't need any medication and he can eat normally.

My vet noticed that he had an ulcerative gingiva where one of his back teeth had been extracted before. She sent this out for a gingival biopsy to the lab for a hisopathology. She'll let me know the results in about 3-5 days and I'll also know the results of his PTH blood test in about 7 days. Please pray that these are both normal.

I was sent home with some oral hygiene rinse that I now need to use on Storm every day to help prevent the buildup of tartar and to help control gingivitis. I've used this before but then I became too lazy to keep up the treatment. I've been a bad meowmie. I'll try to use this on all of my cats every night.

Storm is back to normal and he's eating very well. Even though Sunny wants to become the alpha cat, he seemed to miss Storm on Sunday night. He kept cat calling and I think he was trying to look for Storm. I even think that Pearl missed him and Starr didn't have any one to give head butts to. I'm so glad that everything went well and that he's now home and doing well. Thanks again for all of your prayers and concerns.
