Scary vet visit for Scout

[jazzcat]

Kim, I remembered about that happening to Grace and I kept telling Richard about it while I was watching Scout.

Sounds like several of us have been through this. Rocky and Rumor had the same vaccination but they are fine, thank goodness! Scout's never had a problem before so I wonder what was different this time with her dose. Strange!

Scout seems a lot better now. She finally settled down and took a long nap and she just ate dinner. I think she will be fine. Now to get that tooth healed. Poor baby, I didn't evenn notice her gums were red and swollen around that tooth. Bad meowmie!

What a day for Scout! I hope the meds help clear up her abscess. If she does have to get the tooth removed, they seem to get along fine with just one front fang. My RB cat Jade had the same issue with one of her top fangs and they removed it and she did very well without it for years. I hope the antibiotics kick in soon and Scout feels better. Mouth pain is the worst!
The reaction she had must have been scary. I'm glad you took her back to the vet and they were able to give her something to help the situation. Thankfully she only needs the rabies shot every three years! Is she an indoor cat? You might be able to skip them altogether if she is.

I hope she feels better soon!

The rabies shot she gets is yearly not every three year although they are starting do that here finally. She's an indoor only cat so I will probably not get that for her anymore even though it's the law. My vet said it would only be a problem if she bit someone and she has never done that or even acted like she would bite.
