Indeed, stomatitis is usually cured by
full extraction. There is also some success being seen with lasers on the
inflamed oral tissue. I think your taking him in sooner is better, they can get
him on an IV to support him since he's refusing to eat and drink. Until then,
blend up some chicken broth (boil a small whole chicken, no salt or spices, and
use that as your broth) with a little canned cat food, (use some of
the softer fat from the chicken carcass too, it will boost the calories)and
see if he will drink a "slurry". Make it very thin and blend well, so he can
drink it without having to chew any of it at all. Give him some warm, and some
cold from the refrigerator (two bowls), he may prefer it one way over the
other.
