I hope Lucifer is feeling better this morning and that he won't need surgery! Many head butts and good karma to Lucifer!

 

[ElvirasMum]

Get well soon Lucifer!!!! Elvira and Morticia are sending you head bonks, nose kisses, and TONS of purrs!!!!

How is he doing today?

How is he doing today?

Not much of an improvement yet. Martin called the vet and she said it is too soon to see the swelling go down and that we need to wait until Monday before we know if it worked. So off we go into the dreaded weekend, hoping we don't need to visit an emergency vet (though the vet said that nothing could really happen to it and the meds are also painkillers so there isn't much discomfort for Lucifer).
He was bouncing around this morning when I got up for work, not much out of the ordinary there!

Thank you all for your sweet words, I'll be sure to whisper them in Lucifer's ear and let them work their magic

 

[Xandria]

Thanks for letting us know. Lucifer doesn't seem too discomfited, so that's something at least. I will keep everything crossed and send healing vibes that the swelling starts to diminish and that the next vet visit will be productive.

 

[GizmosMommy]

Well fingers crossed its improved by then

 

[Hairless Blessing]

Glad to hear he's himself and to know the meds also helps him
not to be in pain. Hope he gas a good weekend.

I hope that Lucifer is doing better by now. Vito has one of these too that he hates me squeezing, but it has never swollen like that. Hugs and headbutts for Lucifer and of course Samael too.

UPDATE: It burst open!! Yay

It's still not completely empty but this is a great development. We cleaned it out with a little Dettol soap (as recommended by a vet tech) and will do that three times a day as well as continue to give him the anti inflammatory medicine. Do any of you have additional tips?

I'm very relieved and am anxious to hear what the vet says Monday!

 

[Xandria]

YAY!!!! You keep healing, Lucifer!! You're an awesome parent, @Inflamed.

 

[Catzzzmeow]

Oh I am so happy to hear this news. Hopefully those either experience will have the tips you are hoping for....whew. Keep healing a Lucifer!!!!

[gothicmist]

Yay! So glad to hear this

 

[andreanar]

What a relief huh? I would just keep it clean and let the healing begin!

 

[Hairless Blessing]

Great news. I, hope by the time Monday comes, there will be an amazing difference.
I, wonder, Will this ever come back or since, it's burst and drained, plus, antibiotics,
will that take care of it?

 

[BluesMummy]

Lots of love & prayers sent to lucifer & his family, fingers crossed for the vets on monday xxx

 

[NinaGato]

Oh disgusting! But the good kind of disgusting! Grin. I am glad to hear it burst on its own. Hoping he heals up well and that you can keep it under control from now on with Maintience again.

 

[assibassi]

awwww poor Lucifer ! I hope it gets smaller soon and a quick recovery from it. Hugs my friend.

 

[Cat Dancer]

Hope he feels better & that the anti inflammatory works! Well wishes to you both

 

[kimmyhm]

I'm so pleased it's burst, let the healing process begin!!!

 

[susi794]

I hope this is the last time sweet Lucifer has to deal with it. Get totally better soon, Lucifer! I bet you and Martin are relieved.
Much love,
Susi

 

[GizmosMommy]

So glad it burst!!

 

[Inflamed]

I, wonder, Will this ever come back or since, it's burst and drained, plus, antibiotics,
will that take care of it?

I don't really know, the gland will still be there unless we have it removed but I don't want to do that until it's really necessary.

 

[Hairless Blessing]

I don't really know, the gland will still be there unless we have it removed but I don't want to do that until it's really necessary.

I don't blame you. I pray it takes care of it.

 

[Inflamed]

I thought I'd give you a little update on Lucifer. He is doing pretty well, the bump is getting smaller and smaller. I'll attach a picture of how it looks right now.

We spoke to the vet today and she was pleased as well. She said to continue with the Metacam (anti inflammatory) and start with a course of antibiotics tonight to really get rid of the infection. So hopefully they'll kick in soon and we'll be seeing the last of it within a week or so!
