And he also wonders what "Companion Animal Dentistry" spells out (good thing he can't read).
He skipped breakfast because he'll be anesthetized while they determine the best solution for this:
Yup. It all started when they removed his upper fangs back in February.
Although it made for some adorable photos when those lower fangs kept hooking on his upper lip, it turns out that action has rubbed his face raw. We had hoped it would heal given enough time, but that has not happened, and our veterinarian recommended we see a specialist.
So today, one way or another, that dental specialist will find a solution. We have no idea what it might entail, but we do know how badly he reacted to the anesthesia in February... so we're a bit worried.
Please keep our blue boy in your thoughts today! We'll post updates, we promise.
We also wish to apologize for not being around much these past few weeks.
Our human grandpa is declining, and has been put on hospice care. Our mom is working hard to help manage the situation and help her mom with tough decisions during this difficult time.
We value your friendship tremendously, and we promise we'll visit as soon as we are able!

Sending tons of healing purrz to Maxie. Please don’t let anything happen to him.
ReplyDeletePoor Maxwell! I hope a good solution can be found for your sore mouth. Eric had a very bad reaction to anaesthetic (Domitor) once when he went for a dental and it was put on his records to always be avoided. He never had any problems with other anaesthetic. I am sending purrs for everything to go well.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about your human grandpa and send purrs for him and all your family. Don't worry about visiting. We all understand and family must come first.
I'm purring lots for you Maxwell - and I'm purring for your human too. It's a very difficult time for her - my human has been through this with both her parents and knows. <3
ReplyDeleteSending many purrzzzz for you Maxwell............and many purrrzzzz for your human as well. You all need to do a big group snuggle....sometimes it helps a whole lot.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
I am a dog, but I had lip surgery for my nasty condition 18 months ago. I know the pains, but if they get him fixed up right, it will all be worth it. Can't wait to see your less painful cute mug soon.
ReplyDeleteMaxwell and your father are in our thoughts. I hope the surgery goes well. Much love and support coming your way.
ReplyDeleteWe're sending Maxwell tons of purrs, and keep your mom and her dad in our thoughts. Purrs
ReplyDeleteRaven had a sore on her upper lip after having her upper canine tooth pulled. I'm sure she was biting her lip with her lower fang. It took 3 weeks to heal and thankfully hasn't happened again.
ReplyDeleteMAx, we hopes your day today was totally uneventful and yous just had a most excellent sleep!
ReplyDeleteKisses

Aw, poor Maxwell. We're purring for him....and your dad. Purrs....
ReplyDeleteYour poor Mommy. She has a lot of irons in the fire. We're purring that the vet found a good solution and we will keep your Mommy in our prayers.
ReplyDeleteXOXO
Your family comes first, so don't worry, everyone will still be here whenever you are able to pop in or return. We are very sorry your dad isn't doing well and send a warm hug, purrs and paw taps for your and your mom to share.
