My cat Shakey is having dental extraction surgery on the first to remove a tooth that is driving into her gum and creating a hole. Apparently her jaw is misaligned and the problem has been getting worse over the years so much so that she seems to be in lots of pain. Shes drooling often now, but trying to remain cheery.
How can I help her pain? Earlier Shakey jumped on my lap and allowed me to hold her jaw open so the tooth wouldn't press into the hole, but I can't sit there and hold her mouth open forever. Is there anything I can do until surgery day?
no one cares about your stupid defective cat

Give her weed. Smoke that pussy up.
Maybe oralgel. I don't know if it's safe for animals, and your cat may damage the area more if it's numb and it doesn't know.
But it would provide temporary pain relief.

Oh thanks! I hadn't even considered that.
Ouch, I have jaw issues and it can honestly be some worst pain I've ever gone though, worse than being struck by a car.
I don't have much to say other than seconding the Oragel! Call your vet before you try.
