Sadly the poor thing couldnt be helped in the opinion of the vet. The damaged was too extensive and had started deterioration. We didn't take him for another opinion. So we gave permission to put him to sleep.
We are very sad. No one deserves to go through that. Life is so cruel and short!
We personally think due to the nature of this injury that he might have been a victim of an inhumane trap that someone could have set.
We are located in the US.
We took him in and the doctor said that part of the bottom jaw is gone. There is a little bit of it there but it's been mangled, he will have to give him an anesthetic and do a closer examination to see if it even can be fixed at all. Said possibly a coyote or maybe hit by a vehicle. He will let us know shortly if anything ca...
Do you or anyone else here have any idea what jaw surgery might cost on a cat?
To me it looks more like trauma, it's really ugly. Like those tobacco cancer patients who's lower jaw gets malformed.

I don't understand what has happened to my eyelid. It never stops spasming, every single day. It's always my left eyelid, near the outer corner. Although it happens nearly every day, it also seems to be sort of "activated" by my thinking of it. In other words, it never catches me off guard, it always occurs after the thought enters my mind...
To my knowledge he doesn't have any disease or STD.
I was in fact worrying about any risk involved with irritation or damage that could predispose cancers or anything really. Just a fear that I have in the back of my mind. Since I often get sore throats and a horse voice because of this.
I was referred here from the sexual health forum because they didn't know.
My concern is oral cancer and is it really caused by oral sex? My BF enjoys it. He likes to do it aggressively like usually he pushes my head down and thrusts in and out and it goes into my throat. It makes me gag a lot and sometimes hurts when he does it real hard. It causes m...
