He's a lot better this morning. Eating on his own and playful

out with his older brother and sisters and get some adorable shots. He's confined to the bathroom for at least another day

About two weeks ago, my sister's cat - PufMan, had an ulcer inside his upper lip. He is now doing fine after antibiotics. He also had a pain shot. Seems some cats are prone to this. It is a virus along the line of cold sores in humans. All should be well. Polly

The feral kittens I have pulled from this area all had them, but his was stopping him from eating it was so painful. He's better this morning and eating and playing

and they will not eat , there are liquid diet foods and with a syringe you can bypass the ulcer

He was okay with that and once the pain killer kicked in he started eating on his own. Made him a little loopy and his legs would give like he'd had too much to drink

One hyper cat of mine just would not stop activity on pain pills . He kept walking side ways and into walls. We secured his area so there was not a danger, just some good laughs at his expense

It was funny to see him maneuver...his legs wouldn't do what he wanted them to...seems to be over that today.

He's much better today.

Paws crossed.

Eating on his own again and wanting to play this morning

He's a lot better today

Good luck!

Must have worked because he's a lot better today

Sending healing thoughts. Keep us posted.

He's back to eating on his own and has a lot of energy again

The meds are working and he's eating on his own again

He is a lot better today

Must have worked because he's a lot better today

:HUGGGGGGG:

He's doing better today. Ad cute as he is I'll feel better when he gets bigger and can fight these things better

Goldie (dog), and the cats, db, Barney, Betty, and Onnie send theirs also.

to you and to them . He's much better today

hugs to you both!

Must have worked because much better now

Neither can I!

I had to put down my 4 year old Tiger, cat, on the 16th of this month. he had Feline Immune Pericarditis. If you think of it have the vet give him an immune system booster. it won't hurt. it could keep the white cells at bay for awhile.

Sorry to hear about Tiger. It always hurts even when it's for the best

young age, too.

He's much better today

Back to eating on his own and playful

Kittens are very resilient, so I hope that he will rapidly improve once the antibiotics kick in. Please let us know how he's doing.

The meds are working and he's eating on his own and is playful

As I type he's walking all over me. He figured out quickly who's boss

He eats a little on his own and purrs when I hold him. Mainly he sleeps but I think that's mostly from the pain shot which knocked him out. He also had pink eye. Anyone have Siamese cats? The two other Siamese kittens I took in also developed it...I wonder if the blue eyes make them susceptible. Gabe, also a lynx point, had it when I found him but his two siblings...all black...never got it from him. Thanks again.

thanks joeybee!

with lots of ((((((((((((hugs))))))))) for both of you.

Oriental breeds are very prone to dental problems. Other than that, they're pretty durable little buggers.

Also, don't forget he's likely a cross, not a pure Siamese, so he might even get through life with no need for oral surgery.

Likely he was exposed to a lot of nasty diseases by the rough start he got in life. Did your vet do the blood work to determine what the mouth ulcer is from? There are quite a few different causes and they all have different treatments.

He has no problems with teeth or eyes.

and he had awful teeth. I don't think his eyesight was ever that great, but he managed. He could also hold a grudge longer than any other cat I've ever known. I miss the old bugger, expensive dental work and all.

But his teeth are great. No dental work so far has been needed.

Some of my others had it, not as bad as this guy though

Most cats are infected with it and most just get colds from it. Their variety isn't contagious to humans.

How's he doing?

But he's squinting still

...chorus of all of us who are so happy to hear he is recovering. Just like in little humans, eating and wanting to play are very encouraging signs.

Here's a hug for the little guy. ((((>^..^&lt )))

Great news! Such a cutie. Best wishes to him!
