Morning all
Bear, I hope mummyBear is all ok and can leave soon.
Towner, I can sympathise after my bout of Barcelona Belly last month.
Hope you're feeling better soon.
Bookie, I had 4 wisdom teeth out under general anesthetic when I was 19. My jaw had to be cut into and I couldn't eat properly for days. My mum liquidised Sunday lunch for me, it rather lost its appeal once it'd been turned into green sludge. 
I have been to the vets with Tinca today. He has been off his food since Saturday. He refused tuna and turned his nose up at cheese!
He has tonsillitis. I did not know cats could get that and apparently they have 6 of them! Poor Tinca. He has had an injection of NSAIDs and antibiotics. His temperature was 104!
He yowled all the way there and all the way back. He has had a few laps of water and gone back to bed now.
Good luck Mima and ((hugs for all)) that need them.
