I just got off the phone w/Dr. Lee. He said that it more than likely is the pain med Buprinex that's causing him to act that way. He said that it acts like morphine. He also said that those two teeth were so rotten that he had to use a drill to get them out, that it was like removing wisdom teeth in an adult, so no wonder his little mouth is so sore!

Specs refused soft canned food this morning and he still hasn't drunk any water or used the litter box and that really had me concerned. Again, Dr. Lee said not to worry but if it continues to call him back and that I can give Specs a subQ treatment if he still refuses water. I'm going to buy some baby food and add a little water and syringe it into his mouth at Dr. Lee's suggestion.

I just wish I had seen those bad teeth sooner. I checked his gums and the teeth that he would allow me to see but it's no wonder that he wouldn't let me check his back molars. He was probably in so much pain and I had no way of knowing. I'll tell ya, I really wish God would've given our furkids the power of speech just when they're sick or in pain. (Otherwise, I'd go nuts w/all the yacking around here. Yodie talks too much as it is. LOL)

I feel better after having talked w/Dr. Lee. He always makes me feel better. Now, to make my boy Specs feel better......

Thanx for all the kind words and prayers, my PT family. It's so appreciated.
