MY SWEET BABY D:

Lumos chipped one of her teeth D: She'd already been feeling under the weather - we think she's developed seasonal allergies in her old age - but tonight I managed to catch a glimpse of her yawning and noticed something looked off. Thankfully she's a calm and trusting cat, so I was able to hold her head and gently pull her lips back to get a better look...and yep! One of her front fangies is chipped ;w;

So, uh, we're getting her to the vet ASAP. Liz is gonna call first thing tomorrow morning and see if we can get in same day (or maybe the next day), because tooth stuff is no joke. I'm really hoping it's nothing major...everyone please keep Lumos in your thoughts ;w; She's 12 now, so she isn't young, but she's still so vibrant and energetic usually.

Right now she's sleeping very peacefully, because she got her fancy wet food all day. She's been refusing to eat kibbles and now we know why D: So! Since she's allergic to one of the additives in most wet foods, we can only get her the ~grain free, filler free, all pure ingredients~ foods. We'd been getting her a salmon & pumpkin mousse that's specifically formulated for older cats, but they came out with new flavors recently! And I figured she could use some variety, and I was right, because she loved the tuna, mackerel, and pumpkin one we got this time.

She's so spoiled I love her so much ♥

I need Lumos to not stress me out like this, I cannot take it orz

At least now there's a concrete thing to worry about instead of second-guessing if we were being paranoid or if it was time to take her to the vet....

THE FACT THAT SHE IS SLEEPING SO PEACEFULLY, NOT A CARE IN THE WORLD...Lumos ilu PLEASE stay nice and healthy ;w;

And then we'll get to go on an adventure to the vet~

That sounds so wonderful. I am sure she appreciates the new flavors.

Hope everything goes smoothly with her tooth.

She loves anything fish related, which is funny because our last cat did not and mostly preferred chicken XD But she's been very happy to eat the new stuff and it's making me feel better...any time a cat loses appetite, it's usually a sign that something's wrong D:

Thank you so much!!! Fingers crossed she heals up nicely.
