threeplusfireKoshka is out from under the anesthesia and in recovery now. They had to pull two of his canine teeth, due to breaking/fractures. There's some evidence the other canines might be fracturing too. They also found some large lumps in his gums, which they took samples of to check for tumors. They are sending him home with kitty pain meds tonight.
Since he's been sick/hurting, we had to switch food without the usual careful adjustment period. I assumed some of the diarrhea was from that, and some of it was from angry "I'm going to shit on the stairs because I feel crappy and I'm upset with you" cat feelings. But it isn't going away, and that is worrisome. The doctor is sending home some special foods & things to try to help.
There is a small possibility he may have lymphoma.
I'm so sleep deprived and worried and just fucking done with this day.
