Prayers for Sam

Me, too.

I got chewed out by someone in another group for not taking him to a feline dentist. Not just a cat specialist, but a dentist.

The doc, a cat specialist, says his gums are barely irritated and the swelling has gone down on the right side. The eyes are still dilated unevenly.

Some of this is psychosomatic, but not all of it. He does not feel well, and it may have been going on longer than I thought. I've been so sick, it is possible I missed subtle signs.

Any help or thoughts are appreciated.

Does this specialist not have any ideas?

Perhaps as the swellings go down the eyes may improve?

Sorry I'm not much help.

I'm still just sending good thoughts for both of you.

No problem.

The specialist thinks there is something else going on, but since Sam can't tell us what we need to know it's hard to say. A few weeks back Sam was trying to go outside and he has occasionally made efforts to do just that. At first I just thought he was mad at me, but I wonder if he's trying to go off somewhere.

He's never been a cuddly cat, or I would just hold him.
