Miss Daisy went under anethesia today and had four more teeth pulled. This is her second such experience this year alone and the fourth such experience in the last two years. Back in January, she had three pulled.
She has only a handful of teeth left, in fact.
Over the last weeks, she has shown subtle signs of pain--opening and closing her jaw, slight winces, third eyelid partially up at times, sitting stoicly, eyes half closed, like she is enduring something.
So in she went. She had one canine eroded below the gumline and another beside it, same thing. That hurts. My bus driver friend helped cover her costs. And thanks so much to her for that, because I'm running red these days.
She's home and racing around happy right now "under the influence". Wish I was (under the influence that is).
I am a Cat Woman. My self-appointed mission in life is to save the feline world! To accomplish this mission, I get cats fixed. Perhaps my mission might be slightly delusional. This blog is a mishmash of wishful thinking, rants, experiences as I remember them and of course, cat stories and cat photos. I have a nonprofit now, to help keep the cats here cared for and to fix community cats. Happy Cat Club formed in 2015. Currently, we are on a mission to fix 10,000 cats.
