Percy says thanks everyone sooo much for all the good thoughts. And compliments! He loves compliments. And he is feeling much better after a shot and some anitbiotics.
Sorry to hear about the other kitties out there who have this too.
Dental extractions....
The Peapod has such pearly white teeth, he would truly be embarrassed if he had to be a gummer! But I know that is a possibility and I know that the majority of cats get relief when they have it done. We're going to try a better diet first. Jazzcat mentioned Raw diet - we're looking into that.

Anyway, thanks again for giving him some PT love. It helps! Now the other guys are jealous and want their own threads!

Kuhio98 - I hope we don't have to change his name to Peepod. What was Pepper thinking?

jenluckenbach - If we hit on any treatments that are wildly successful, we'll let you know.

Maya & Inka's mommy - WOW, Sydney is a twin! Especially in the face!
