🖤 Send happy thoughts - Surgery

My lil void is getting his teeth removed tomorrow. He's sleeping at the vet tonight, it's my second night without him since I've adopted him.

I'm pretty anxious about the surgery, but he's apparently in a lot of pain from a mouth infection (he's a rescue and was seriously sick when I got him).

Send love his way, he'll need all he can get!

Thanks! I'm nervous, but I know he'll be glad to be home once it's all over

I've had to do it with one of my rescues as well, they recover remarkably well and eat solid food fast enough as well. Though some wet food the first days can't hurt.

It's nice to know that other cats have been through this and are doing well ! ❤️‍🩹 He was mostly eating wet food already because of the pain, so it's no big change!
