Good morning. We are back to our usual numbers after blues and yellows yesterday. Starting to ease Moe back to his regular shot time after a two hour delay in the morning yesterday.

Glad Moe stayed safe yesterday. I hope he keeps sliding down today.

325 at +6. I went to test his glucose a few minutes ago and it looked like his tongue was poking out the side of his mouth. It is a strange growth on his bottom lip where his canines come together. I just noticed this today. Possibly an abscess, hopefully not something worse. I managed to get pictures, so I'll be sending those to my vet today. This cat....

Can you post a picture here too?

I'm not sure how to do that...If I click the "insert picture" button, it asks for a URL, but I have the pics saved on my PC. Is there another way to post them here?

Below the text box you type is is a Upload a File button. That'll let you point to a picture.

Oh, I never even noticed that button. Pics attached.

When his mouth is closed, his upper canine comes down into the middle of that mass, and the little bumps poke out of the side of his mouth just a bit.

Poor Moe. Those are good pics. I hope the vet gets back to you soon.

On a positive note, we’ve got a yellow number. 296 at +9.

I just got a message back from the vet and we are scheduled for a dental on Monday, April 13th. She will look at the mass then, and hopefully sample and biopsy it.

Good, that's not too far from now. Does it seem to be bothering him while eating?

Not that I’ve noticed, but I’m paying close attention now. He’s always had eating issues; he has to gather food in his mouth then sort of throw his head back to swallow (when he’s drinking, too). So far I’m not seeing a change but I’ll keep an eye on him in the next few days.
