Recently, he had several visits to the vet for an abscess near his mouth. The vet believed it was a rotting tooth, but I disputed this claim. It turned out to be unrelated to his teeth. He had them cleaned anyway and was put on antibiotics and steroids to clear up the infection which most likely occurred from a scratch.
This was finally cleared up and after several re-checks, he was cleared and able to receive his rabies shot. This last visit was on Friday of last week. Today I noticed his lower lip is severely swollen. It doesn't seem like he's in any sort of pain, and I have no idea what caused this. I suppose I will have to make another appointment for him this week. There goes another few hundred bucks. Ugh! Why do I have to be a crazy animal lady??
