Thanks

Glad the vet didn't think it was too serious and good he has gone so long without ab's

Sorry to hear that Ollie has an infection, but pleased to hear that is all it is - if that makes sense!

[CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls]

He has an infection in his mouth so has been given some antibiotic jab and a steriod to give him a boost, so he should be scooting around soon  The vet also said he had not had any anti-b's since Feb, so this is a great improvement. He had not needed them in the past 10 months where as it was every month before he had his teeth removed. 

[CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls]

He has green slaver coming out the side of this mouth, so it looks like he has got one. Although his over all health seems to be ok, he's not like the last time when he just hid out the way, so I hope he just needs meds.


Thinking about it though I dont think he has had any anti-b's since March/ April time, and this is for a cat who was getting them every month, so something must be getting better for him.

Pleased he seems good on himself  and good luck tomorrow x

[CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls]

Did not end up going to the vets today, The vet I see with Ollie is only on certain days and I will only see him. He's there tomorrow so we will be going then.

Although I do think Ollie has picked up, I heard a racket going on upstairs and went to look, and a black cat flew past me, Ollie

Best of luck at the vet, hope Ollie's mouth soon clears up

Thanks gals 

[Teresa Pawcats]

  for you and lots of positive vibes for Ollie.

As for "time bombs" they endear themselves to you in the most special way of all 

[Christine (Blip)]

for Ollie at the vets tomorrow 

I second that.    to Ollie.

[Tiggy's Mum]

for Ollie at the vets tomorrow 

[CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls]

His mouth dosnt seem as wet today, but he's still going tomorrow 

The vet said give him a full tab for 3 days when he is bad and if he starts to look better drop it to half again.

Thing is though, noting more can be done for Ollie in tearms of treatment or op's, So when he does get really bad I know to expect the worst. I hate living with this time bomb, why cant he just have a normal life. 

[Kirst]

Fingers crossed for Ollie tomorrow.

[Desley (booktigger)]

Fingers crossed for him tomorrow.

[Janeyk]

  very best of luck for Ollie

[CC & The Pussycat Guys & Dolls]

I hope he dosnt as the last time he had one we nearly lost him. He will be going to the vets on Monday so fingers crossed. I just dont know how long I can live with the worry that he would be taken away from us, I know its going to happen one day but for all of Ollies life I have expected him just not to be here some day , through his illness. He is doing ok in himself but his mouth was frothing tonight and it looks all slavery.
