Sharing an update: My vet replied to my email this morning to basically say "I do tend to be concerned whenever I see an oral mass." Not all that comforting - and hoping she's just more of an err on the side of caution type.
We're looking to move up his procedure, possibly on Thursday, or referring him out to a dentist who will be able to do additional imaging if needed. All a bit overwhelming, but I want things done sooner rather than later, both for him and so I don't have to spend the next 6 weeks wondering and looking in his mouth every 2 minutes.
I continue to hope that the fact that he's showing no other signs or symptoms will mean good news. He's eating dry food, chasing his ball relentlessly, chewing on his stuffed penguin... All normal behavior.
Say a prayer for both of us - for good news and for my sanity! |
