Sorry, here's a long one, but I didn't want to miss any details.
My indoor cat is just about to turn 16. At the start of 2021, he had a routine check-up that showed he was starting to have oral problems, but they just recommended getting a cat version of dentastix. We did that, as well as a powder that goes on the food to help clean the teeth.
A couple of months go by (now June/July), and he starts to barely eat. We took him back to the vet, who removed several teeth. It was like having a kitten again.
Come October, the poor old fella is barely eating again but also has sickness and diarrhoea. The vet put him on anti-sickness tablets. This worked while he was on them, but then he reverted back to being poorly. They tried a second round of the same tablets, and everything improved.
In January, he had his annual vaccinations.
Unfortunately, this month, we had to go away for a family funeral, and so the cat was put in the cattery. About a week later, he has two days of vomiting again. This stopped, but in the last three or four days, he's started eating less. He's just joined me at the computer where I'm working, and I can see one of his teeth is at an odd angle. It feels loose, and so I've booked him in with the vet for tomorrow morning.
Does anyone have any idea what could be going on? Could the sickness be linked with the teeth? I thought with the surgery last year, his teeth were now sorted. Could there be something more sinister lurking in the background? TIA
