Twinkle - Having a Dental on Monday

Well the vet has decided to do a dental on Twinkle. She says there are tiny spurs which wouldnt normally cause a problem, but with the evidence of a very messy bottom, she feels we need to do this to rule out teeth.

Twinkle is going in Monday and they are allowing Pickle to come with her this time after the problems I had with separation when she was spayed.

The vet has again ruled out weight and also arthritis. Very lively, and no muscle wastage - had a good feel around her back end.

She is also gonna shave/clip all her dirty fur off when she is under the GA.

The estimate includes GA/burring of teeth and gut stimulant - would she also need painkiller administered after as I will ask for this if you feel so.

So worried about taking her on Monday, but it has to be done :cry:

Some Buns do require a couple of days on analgesia after a dental, particularly if a lot of burring is done. I hope all goes well for Twinkle on Monday :)
