I hope Oscar's dental will go well! A day of suffering, and then he will feel so much better.

Oscar is looping around the place right now, higher than a kite!
SEVEN teeth were removed, including all his canines. Several teeth had already resorbed. The poor guy must have been in so much pain, but he didn't show it.I feel like such a bad meowmie - poor Oscar!
Metacam for a few days, plus antibiotics and soft food. I am sure he will feel tons better when he heals up.
Thanks for all the prayers and good thoughts. Oscar appreciates them and so do I.

Poor Oscar, I'm sorry he had a dental problem and am glad he got through it ok. I had never heard of FORL until I read it in your post. Maybe I should try to look at Luke's teeth (that will be a JOB). Anyway I sure am glad the appointment is over and hope he will heal quickly and get back to his old self soon. Kay

He'll feel so much better now. And you're not a bad meowmie. I have difficulty checking Sam's teeth. He just won't let me.

Thanks, everyone.
Gary, Oscar has to be on soft food for a few days. I did mix some with warm water last night, and he got about a teaspoon into him. He was still a bit out of it, but did calm down enough so I could unwrap the bandage on his leg where the IV site was.
This morning was medication time! Thankfully, the antibiotic was eaten in a pill pocket. The liquid Metacam was NOT going in his mouth (said Oscar) and I wasn't about to pry his jaws open. I mixed a small amount of soft food with warm water and mixed the Metacam into it. He ate it all! So the meds will be easier than I thought.
The only thing left now is results of the urinanalysis.
Oscar was all snuggly and purry this morning, and wanted to snuggle up under the covers with me. He sure was happy to be home, and likely feeling MUCH less pain than he has for a while!
I love my baby boy!
