    Whew!

    Hey CJ - I had an abcessed tooth one (when I was a kid) and it's no fun at all. I feel your pain, but do let Momma-Deb give you the medicine, okay? Gotta fight this ickiness so she won't (have to) be such a worrywort!

    Thanks so much everybody. I'm still grinning too.

    I stopped at the shelter last night and told her my concerns. She is going to have the director call me today. Terry insists I get the adoption fee back. I would prefer that they keep it because they need it, so I really don't know what I'm looking for from them. I guess I just want them to know about it so maybe they can watch a little closer next time so this doesn't happen to someone else who might not be so willing to work with the new adoptee.

    CJ now hates me and avoids me like the plague - ok, so it's not quite that bad, but he does avoid me because he thinks everytime I look at him I'm going to try and shove another pill down his throat or give him some other yucky medicine. The one medicine must not smell that good because he gets all squinty eyed when I put it on his paw (easier than down the throat, and then he licks it off the paw). So now, everytime I talk to him and he looks at me, he does the squinty eye thing. Eeewww, that nasty lady is talking to me again.

    He was out all night last night with no squabbles. Peanut now only hisses if he comes too close. They touched noses this morning - then she hissed. But it has really gotten to the point where he does his thing and doesn't seek her out and she does her thing and doesn't seek him out, so the only time there's hissing is if their paths just happen to cross.

    Things are going well. Now, if we could just get Terry to relax.....

    I'm so happy for you and for CJ!!! I haven't been online for awhile, so I was super excited to read CJ's good news!

    The power of prayer . . . always amazes me, but never surprises me

    Hang in there CJ!

    Of course the pilling stage came very early in your relationship- he did not have enough cuddling on the couch before you started that nasty job.

    But once the tooth is gone and all is over, you can start all over again and he'll know he has the best meowmie ever

    I'm so happy that CJ "only" has an abcessed tooth! I feel for him though! I had a school photo taken when I was five years old, just a few hours before it was realised that I had an abcess in my ear - you should see the face on me!

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed for his speedy recovery.

    I'm so glad to hear Cracker Jack 'only' has an abcessed tooth! Better than all the other scenarios. Get on your chain mail suit, and good luck doing meds. Just a thought, but when you adopted C.J. he was on Petfinder, and many shelters are signing up with this program offered by Petfinder. Not sure if it's something that has to be filled out during adoption paperwork or not, but it's worth looking into maybe? http://www.sheltercare.com

    Don't worry, Terry will stop hissing as time goes on!

    Thanks so much, Jan! I had completely forgotten about this! I just went to activate it and it becomes effective 10 days after you adopt the pet, so it's not effective until 1/14/05 so I'm not sure what, if anything will be covered, but at least I can try.

    It's really not the cost of all this has me bothered, but if I can recoup some of the costs, I'm cool with that. It's more the mental anguish, the pain and suffering. I was expecting a healthy loving boy kitty. I got the loving part, but the healthy part leaves a little to be desired, and after losing Tubby so recently, the last thing I need right now is a sick kitty.

    But anyway, now I know it's nothing too serious and he will be a healthy loving boy. It'll just take a few weeks longer than I expected.

    Deb, I didn't read up on it when I posted the link, but it states it must be activated within 10 days of the adoption. It's been longer hasn't it? Still may be worth looking into to see if you can get back some of what you've spent already.

    I missed the entire thread, so I too went from OH NO to WHAT to Prayer to Yahooooooooooooooo.

    Hugs to you Debbie, and the fur-kids

    Maybe if you take Terry to the Thursday bar he can order a "trauma drink"?
