(((HUGS)))) to Sam and meowmie! Sam, sweety, I hope you feel much better soon. XO XO XO
I agree with you about the timing for his dental procedure. Could the vet have given him a Convenia injection instead of you having to give him medication each day? The Convenia worked for Cassie last summer ('13) when her mouth was bad.
Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

Hope that Sam is feeling better soon, and you too, Anne. It's so stressful when our furkids have issues, but can't tell us what's wrong.
And that vet???? - geeze! I'd definitely be wanting to see a different one. That's what I love about the vet I have used for my kids for over 20 years - private practice/one vet only. She actually knows/remembers their issues every time one has to see her. When Myndi passed, she was crushed - Myn was her oldest canine patient at almost 18 years old.

I spoke to a receptionist today and got her to agree to have a different vet call me. It's one that has seen Sam before (in fact two weeks back). I have to use the vet that scheduled the surgery unless this one intervenes. There were more tests that could have been performed in the office.Originally Posted by pomtzu

From what I've read about Horner's syndrome, with cats there is usually an underlying cause. Hence, we need to remove this infection.
I also put out a request for the Cat Clinic in town to respond. It's a vet that treats only felines. For Sam, I might need this.
