Dental went well. Halloween's top teeth on one side were overgrown and growing curved into his cheek and caused a bit of an ulcer, and his bottom teeth on the opposite side were overgrown and curving in towards his tongue. The spot where his missing tooth is was a little inflamed so the vet cleaned it up, and trimmed his teeth back, then gave him an injection of antibiotics, and sent him home with pain meds.
Halloween is TRYING to eat solids but still struggling, I am hoping it is just because he is still a bit groggy from the sedation and his mouth is a bit sore, I am hoping that over the next few days he regains the ability to eat solids. In the meantime he has a selection of dry pellets, wet pellets, hay, and finely chopped veggies in his cage to choose from and hopefully something will entice him. He will get syringe fed tonight if he does not eat a significant amount today. He is trying though.
He has gained 0.1Kg since his last visit so that is good.
Sadly one of his feet is getting red again so I might have to wrap it again. For now I am applying the cream very sparingly and keeping an eye on it.
