Please Say a Pray for My Brothers Cat Monte-He's Going in For Surgery 5 Teeth Pulled*

[Karen]

I wonder if he initially just dislocated his jaw. My jaw dislocates when I yawn, or "open wide" - I always thought everyone's jaw did that, until my orthodontist explained one that that not everyone hear a popping sounds when he has told them "open wide," and to be careful and what to do if i got it stuck open*. Thankfully that last bit has never been necessary, but hey, I know if necessary!

Glad to hear he is doing better, at any rate.


*hit myself hard with the heel of my hand against the spot where the jaw "hinges."

My brother called me last night (of course I posted before this one that Monte was doing fine since I didn't hear anything) and he was heading home from the ER with Monte and Monte was in the back round crying. The ER sent home some pain shot injections so that way Monte will be comfortable until he was able to get a vet appt. Apparently, Monte started acting semi-better on Friday but then Sunday he opened his mouth again and started to drool so that's why he ended up in the ER.

My brother said Monte needs to have at least 1 tooth pulled to possibly 2-3 teeth pulled. He has gum disease.

I got him a vet appt. with my vets tomorrow at 9 a.m. and they are going to look at him and then they will put him under and pull his teeth.

Please say a pray that everything goes well for Monte that he will be just fine after this.

Aww, poor Monty! I am glad he has painkillers as bad teeth and gums HURT!

He will need pain meds after the surgery too, but will feel much better very soon! Prayers for a fast recovery!

Poor guy, I'll certainly say a prayer for him. Hope you feel better soon, Monte.

I talked with my mom last night and poor Monte had to have 5 teeth pulled. My brother went to pick him up tonight and take him back to Bethlehem where he lives.

Please say a quick pray that Monte heals up just fine and doesn't have anymore problems.

Thanks for all the prays so far,

Melissa
