The Vet: Outcome
They said the fang was not that big a deal. But he has severe gum disease, which they said was painful, and which in cats is either:
- Regular gum disease like people (dental)
- Herpes - likely because he got that in the shelter
- Autoimmune
So he got a course of Clinda/Flagyl, and also depo steroids for 9 weeks. It's been about 4, and to me the teeth look just the same. But the steroids seem to be making him sort of depressed. I hope he doesn't get all Addisonian on me on the way to the US. Doh.
And he has to go to the Ministry of Agriculture for a certificate of health. He's my little farm animal.

What the hell, Nems?
Last night we're sitting on the sofa, and B.B. Av says, "Hey, where's his other fang?" He usually has this real cute overbite with two fangs hanging out.
Sure enough - there's a big chip off the end of his top fang.
He's going to the vet tomorrow, it's a whole deal. But it's getting ridiculous - his latest vet visits:
- Hit by car (?)
- Smoke inhalation (there was a huge wildfire by the house and we all got smoke inhalation a few months ago)
- Broken fang
The thing is, how did he even do this? He was in the house alone all day and we came back and found the broken fang.
The camera battery is charging but you'll get a picture soon.

Wet Wake Up
This morning: Namerovsky hopped into bed, and I was awakened by wet cat feet and underside. I looked and there were tiny wet cat prints over all the bedding.
"Avi! Why is the cat wet?" I yelled.
"Oh - funny story, let me finish brushing my teeth and I'll tell you." I am relieved. I was afraid he had stepped in pee in the box and then tracked it into bed.
"I was trying to get ready and he was trying to get up on the bathroom sink, and he climbed on the toilet seat to get up there and when he tried to jump, he fell in the toilet."
AAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Worse than cat pee! Toilet water!
Namerovsky won himself a morning bath.

Oh Namerovsky, you are ridiculous
This is the huge bag of crappy cat food for the strays. They spray it with cat crack or something. It is irresistible.
