Groucho – Rescued with a Bloody Discharge from His Nose, Lethargic, and Not Eating

5/23/19 – Groucho showed up on the property of someone we have assisted often with cat rescues. She trapped him and took him to a low-cost clinic with the intention of putting him back out with her feral cats but because they told her he had a bloody discharge from the nose she decided to keep him inside until he was better, the next day he quit eating and was very lethargic so she took him to the doctor; he seemed to do better for a couple weeks but than his breathing got very bad and that’s when she contacted us. Groucho’s 4th vet visit was to our ‘go to’ veterinarian, Dr.Natalie Zalac who, after checking for polyps and other issues, decided that this breathing issue may have been related to a severe dental problem. Groucho, although FIV positive, had surgery and 4 canines and several other teeth were extracted; he may have only 5 teeth left. He was also neutered and vaccinated. The rescuer tells us that he is showing signs of improvement and we all have our paws crossed that he will recover fully and be adopted into a loving home.
