Notes from San Jose Animal Care Center

10/19/26 13:40 The remainder of dental work was performed in shelter today. Leo's gums are expected to heal up within 14 days. Leo has shown some fearfulness in the shelter environment, at times hissing and hiding, but this may have been related to oral pain or discomfort, and his behavioral will continue to be monitored in shelter now that his dental work is complete. In need of urgent rescue or adopter who can give him a soft place to heal up and decompress. Come to the shelter to meet handsome Leo!10/06/26 16:22 Middle aged-to-senior cat presented to shelter with non specific clinical signs. On examination, patient has severe periodontal disease at maxillary carnassial teeth, gingival recession at maxillary canine teeth, and FORL lesions at 307, 308, 309 and 407, 408, 409. The patient had several teeth extracted at the time of castration today, but the dental work was staged due to length of procedure and capacity constraints - therefore patient is in need of urgent rescue to perform remainder of needed dental extractions (~5-7 other teeth). Senior thoracic/abdominal radiographs were unremarkable, labwork was unremarkable, T4 is within reference range and FELV/FIV/HWT negative. This cat is believed to be prior owned and possible abandoned.
