She's still going to the vets anyway as I need a second opinion on her teeth so I'll be mentioning it to them to see what they think could have caused it.

I just hope she's a good girl for the vet.

Good luck!
Hope she's ok & I'm sure the vet will manage even if she doesn't feel too cooperative

Thankfully we were able to see the same vet that I've seen most of the time with our Chineseys and she's very good with them. May herself was an angel and didn't squirm too much and the vet was able to have a look at her properly.

Her teeth are fine but her gums were looking quite sore and bulgy so she's got a prescription for Baytril to mix with her drinking water. However if it doesn't reduce the swelling then it'll be because of a tumour and there's not a lot else that can be done other than keep her comfortable and allow her to enjoy whatever time she has left.

At the moment I'm keeping everything crossed that the Baytril works for her.

I can imagine how worried you must be, crossing fingers & paws here for you both & hoping it is just sore gums for some reason & nothing worse.

Thank you both.

I had an uneasy feeling when I saw that lump the other day and there was a nagging at the back of my mind that told me that even though I couldn't see it on Saturday morning, she still needed to see someone.

It's left me feeling a bit emotional today :'(

Feeling emotional is only to be expected & I know it would be thoughtless to say try not to worry but hang on in there, nothing's certain yet & we're sending lots of positive vibes your way.

Just catching up with the thread, glad you managed to see the same vet as hopefully it's just sore gums. Sending lots of positive vibes. X

She's being quite good at taking her medicine so far so I'm hoping that it'll work and I'll see some signs of improvement soon.

Yesterday I had her out at playtime and she just wanted me to play with her and with a face like hers, how could I resist...

She always looks totally impossible to resist!
Good to hear she's still enjoying her play time & taking her meds ok.
