Tonight we came home to find our cat, Pepper, with a clicking jaw. He can meow, and eat, but it's like he keeps trying to put it back in place or something. He can open his jaw wide, and close it, but it shudders (for lack of a better word) when opening/closing. It really seems like a dislocation (I, unfortunately, know a lot about 'em personally). The poor thing. I wonder if he hit his jaw on a cabinet or something while jumping up on it or off it.
For the past 6 months or so, he's been doing this thing where he sticks out his tongue, but we thought nothing of it, as he hasn't had any other symptoms of.. well, anything.
I guess he'll be going to the vet tomorrow. Another vet bill we can't afford.
I'm so worried about him. :( I know dislocations hurt like a fucking bitch. At least I know this isn't a life-or-death thing, like Greynose's was.
Why do my cats suffer such misfortunes? :(
