Ocean's 5th jab

Brought Ocean to vet again as he seems to show signs of painfulness in his mouth and has not been eating well for the past few days.

We decided to seek advice from the vet to see if it is possible to switch to medication instead of jabs, if that is a better option.

Vet gave a jab that will last for 2 days, and gave us a week's medication. Dr. Amelia told us to start giving Ocean the medication starting this Friday, and we should bring Ocean in again for check out a week later.

We plan to crush the pill and mix it with can food, which is what Ocean seems to like lately.
Hopefully with this change, he does not need to endure so much suffering and can have a better quality life moving forward.

Ocean's 4th jab

2 days ago Hiro had a fight with Ocean.
And ocean's gingivitis came back again.

I am suspecting that ocean is getting stressed whenever there is a fight , which eventually causes his immune system to drop , and his gingivitis to come back.

We brought him to Hope Vet after work. It's only 1month plus since his last jab. Doctor advice that thus doesn't look good as its getting more frequent.

We really will keep a very close eye on the contact between Hiro and Ocean from now on. And let's see will this jab last longer this time.

Hiro 1st steroid jab

Hiro has been having mouth pain for the past few days. And it's being getting worse lately.

We brought him to vet, and the doctor said that the gingivitis was very bad. He suggest that a jab is given to him so as to suppress his pain , and then after that we could follow up with some antibiotics.

Ocean 3rd steroid jab

Ocean went for his 3rd steroid jab yesterday as he was in pain.

He started showing signs of pain in his mouth about 2 weeks ago. It wasn't until it 2 days back when it gets pretty bad. We decided to bring him to get the jab as we will be back to johor for cny for a few days.

The last jab was 3 months back. Hopefully this time the jab will keep the gingivitis under control longer.

Ocean 2nd steroid jab this year

Ocean's gingivitis has come back 3 weeks ago.
It had became worsening until the stage that he hasn't been eating for yhe past 3 day.
We decided to bring him in to Hope Vet for another steroid jab. The previous one he had was slightly 2 months ago.

He has been improving a lot ever since. He even asked for food, which is a good sign. But having steroids every 2 months is really not a good thing for thr organs. We hope that could change.

We bought a tube of OROZYME. It is something like a toothpaste. All you need to do is squeeze 1cm out and rub it on him hand, so that he licks it. According to the doctor it acts like an enzyme which kinda breaks down dental plaque and weaken the bacteria.

We r giving this to Hiro and Nala too. Let's see how it works in another month or two.
