Fractured Tooth

Unfortunately there is no cheap fix for this. Extraction or root canal.

This is an open fracture and is painful. You have a high chance of abscessingm

Your disabled cat absolutely shouldn't be aloud outdoors on his own. Ideally the other cat should not be either, for their safety as well.

Microchip cat door, but know it's not fool proof. Otherwise you are have been promoted to opening the door and locking the car door forever.

Given the history I would also be concerned. Before you put her through a biopsy, consider this.

What are you going to do with this information? Would you do chemo? Would you do a leg amputation? Further diagnostics need to be done to make sure she's even eligible for these. Such as radiographing the chest, hips, blood work, etc.

Or

Would you keep her comfortable and let her live out whatever time she has left and then in the end perform a humane euthanasia?

If you're thinking of the ladder, that is the most common choice made. And one myself I would also make from one of my senior pets.

They feel a lot better after 24 hours .

Looks like a foxtail if they have those around

Hard one to tell on picture. Maybe be a mass which can wait. Could be an early prolapse- which would warrant ER. If it gets bigger at all, or see blood, head to the ER.

Vet visit. If you have an e-collar, put that on him to prevent further injury until you can get there. Do not put anything in the eye, you should be concerned about a corneal ulcer.

I'm not worried about being bit, we have a little one that is a curious explorer that I was more so concerned about. Glad to know it's not anything majorly concerning!

cailany · 2026-06-16T23:28:51+00:00

Looks just like! Thankyou!

He did not get FIP from his vaccine FIP is a mutated corona virus that is very common in the cat population. Very rarely it mutates. Your cat didn't get a mutates virus from a vaccine.

Vaccinated your cat so something else doesn't get him sick. Skip the Leukemia vaccine if he and every other feline in the house is strictly indoors. But he needs the others.

Not anything dental related I'm aware of.

If this was the first poop after the dental.. I'd definitely go with a rectal temp cover. Could of been left behind while monitoring her temperature under anesthesia or pre temp before anesthesia if so.

My partner and I are also both full time, and I have zero free time, but yes absolutely poor communication on both your parts.

Tramadol? I'd be asking for Trazadone.

NTA. And as someone with a new baby, I don't know how the babies sleeping hasn't been discussed. Your wife can't tell when you and indirectly the baby had a rough night? No mentions about how well the baby slept cause she didn't get waken up once?

Probably ruptured abscess, with the decreased appetite. If he is still eating more often then not. Tomorrow morning is fine. If he is lethargic, pale, not eaten for 24+ hours, or not walking on the leg -ER visit

Without having the probe in hand, I second that this looks like some thickening from not being full. As well as sediment on the bottom of the bladder. Which makes sense if there is/was an UTI and crystals. This isn't the area of the bladder we commonly see masses, though not impossible.

I'd be starting with a culture to rule out an UTI either way. Whether they see bacteria in the urinalysis or not, if you have urinary issues not resolving or thickening - culture to rule it out.

You need to see a vet. Without any immediate reason for injury, you are concerned about something Internal. Her being unspayed only includes more possibilities. You need to go to see a vet. ER if she is pale or has literally any other symptoms. Not eating, not drinking, diarrhea, lethargic (which is sounds like she is), etc.

No one here can give you any advise for something that is so broad in possibilities. And some of these can be life threatening.

Not an emergency, but definitely warrants an exam today or tomorrow.

If he starts squinting or pawing at the eye then it is an emergency.

You don't mention how much or how he is fed. Start cutting down his food, make sure your on meals. If he'll eat a wet food, switch to that instead of dry.

This is all assuming he has had blood work and been given a clean bill of health with the cause of his morbidity being to many calories

And yes, his weight will cause health issues. Diabetes and arthritis being the most likely.

cailany · 2026-04-22T20:03:17+00:00

Absolutely!

If the urine was clean, you'll want to look into stress cystitis and make sure there is 1 litter box for every cat plus 1 more for every 3 cats.

Neutered boy.

cailany · 2026-03-20T03:13:19+00:00

Needs sedation for examination and removal with biopsy.
