Jade is having her teeth cleaned tomorrow

Hi everyone.  Nervous mother, here.  Jade will be going under for a dental cleaning tomorrow, Wednesday.  I am hoping there won't be any extractions this time, but I wouldn't be surprised. Poor girl has bad gingivitis, as well, so I hope the cleaning makes her feel better.  I've put this off after reading the posts about the kitties coming out of anesthesia with brain damage.  We would be devastated if that happened.  Jade needs your prayers tomorrow that all goes well.  Thank you!

Yes, after 4pm.  The cleaning only takes about 30mins, but they keep her to monitor her which is fine by me.  They'll call with an update when she comes out of the anesthesia.  And darn it, I meant to take a can of food but forgot so will ask when they call if they'd like me to bring it since office is only half mile away.  Thanks, Linda.  I know we are in for a herpes flare up at the very least, though.  Her shots are due, too, but I declined that for today.  From experience, that would be too much stress on her system.   I also okayed a urinalysis recheck which jacked the bill up another $100.  I just pray she doesn't need any teeth pulled this time.

Oh, that's great Loreena is all done with the meds.  It wasn't so bad this time, was it.  The Clavamox given here doesn't taste bad, either.  It's just getting it down the cat, is the hard part.  I am most impressed you do all this medicating by yourself, Apple.  I take it you're still taking Loreena out on the leash?

Thanks for your support, honey.  REALLY appreciate it!

Nope - she's out of the leash!
Free to climbinhg treess and get a lot of "carrapichos" in her fur
Carrapichos = that kind of stuff I dont remember the  name in english - vegetal pocket for seed dispersion that attach to fur or clothes
No problems with those - you can easily take them off later on - and its also a fun for her cleaning  herself :-)

She's home and very wobbly, still.  Two teeth pulled, poor girl.  She'll get her second dose of antib and pain med later tonight.  So far, so good, she's still very confused and I won't relax until she shakes off the anesthesia entirely.
