I Wanna Be Sedated

Well, Maya was dropped off for his dental cleaning and extraction this morning around 8:00. Now it is a waiting game until the lady gets that ever important phone call from one of the techs letting her know Maya is doing great and is in recovery. We will post updates as soon as we get them. Thanks for all the wonderful purrs!

2:00 Update
After waiting rather patiently for someone to call her with a Maya update, the lady decided to call the vet's office herself. The lady at the front told her Maya had been give pre-meds and was scheduled to go in next. The lady was really hoping Maya was already in recovery. By pick up time (5:30) Maya will probably still be pretty loopy.
***
6:00 Update
Maya is back, safe and sound. The vet had to extract 2 teeth!! Ouch! He came home with pain meds, antibiotics, and some tartar prevention ointment, and also what appears to be a sore on his nose. He is still pretty tanked and is walking around aimlessly rubbing his face along every surface, including Dixie dog! Oh, and Cal is hissing at him. Cal goes to the vet once a week and still nobody ever hisses at him........wth? Maya still cannot eat until 7:00, then he can have just a little bit of stinky goodness. He will be on stinky goodness only, until his sutures dissolve, about 1 week.
Thanks so much for all the wonderful well wishes and purrs for Maya.

Mommy got really excited by the title of your post (she's a Ramones fan) but then she realized it was for Maya's dental cleaning and she told us to rev up our purring motors to make sure his procedure is successful!

Good luck, Maya. Let us know how it all turns out.

You did a good job Maya and we are glad you are home all safe & sound (well, except for the owie part).
Maybe by now all the cats expect Cal to smell "vetty" all the time but for Maya, it is really something different. I always feel sorry for the one who comes back after an ordeal only to get hissed at & shunned.
Again, glad all is well.

Quill and Greyson said...

Hope you feel okay when the meds where off Maya.

Cory said...

Maya we are so happy to hear you are home and doing ok, if a bit groggy! Once you sleep it off you will feel a bit punk until your mouth heals up and then you will feel so great! Our Lewis had a bum tooth, once he had it removed he was like a new cat! Your mom and dad love you lots to take such good care of you!

Cheyenne -Millie said...

Your a brave cat to have a tooth extraction. We hope you feel better fast!
Also, mom says to tell you, we have given you an award. If you have time you can come and collect it from our blog.

Poor Maya. Still, it's better to go to the dentist then have poorly teef and gums that hurt. And the upside is stinky goodness while it heals up.
Feel better soon Maya. We are sending you purrs.
