Help my cat, Hero, for his operation!
https://paypal.me/CMendoza0413?country.x=CA&locale.x=en_US
Hero, my 1-year-old domestic shorthair cat, have a sialocele, which is a fluid-filled mass under his tongue. He need a surgery to remove that sac! His vet said that the operation costs 5500 - 7000k Canadian Dollars, which i don't have unfortunately. He is okay for now, but the mass is getting bigger and might impede his eating and swallowing.

I haven't really been around in a bit. The last half of this year ended being different than I imagined.
In just under two weeks I have to bring my one cat, Max, to a specialist vet to see if they can proceed with surgery. I can't see why not. He just turned two in September and he has no known health issues. But it really depends on the results of their imaging and tests and whether his quality of life will suffer.
As of right now, I'm proceeding with the mindset he will get the surgery. My research has pointed toward it being the only option and a good prognosis. Time will tell.
He has a salivary gland sialocele. Essentially his salivary gland is blocked/damaged and saliva is building up in a lump. Fluctuates between the size of a ping pong ball and a golf ball. Luckily he has had no issues yet.
I'd appreciate any thoughts/prayers sent his way. Here is his cute little face:

Sialoceles in Dogs Diagnosis
After discussing your pet’s medical history, your vet will undertake a medical examination and examine the swollen region attentively. The two stages of diagnosis are as follows:
Your veterinarian may use a sterile needle to aspirate the region to scoop up the fluid for testing. Depending on the situation, your dog may require sedation.
The liquid from a sialocele is transparent, pale yellow, or blood-tinged in color and mildly viscous, similar to saliva. Your veterinarian may recognize saliva right away, but to be sure, he or she will send the fluid to a laboratory for analysis. A medical pathologist will examine the fluid to establish the types of cells present and whether the bulge is a sialocele. Infections, tumors, and other possible causes of edema can all be ruled out with this test.

Queenie is a two year old pittbull terrier mix up for adoption at the Humane Society of Monroe County, a no-kill non-profit animal shelter in Monroe, MI. Recently, she had to go to the vet for what was thought to be a minor issue, and found out she has Sialocele, or Salivary Mucocele. This happens when either the ducts or glands used during saliva production are damaged in some way, the cause of which is still unknown. When this happens, saliva accumulates in the tissues around the salivary gland under the jaw, causing a capsule to form and swell, preventing the saliva from migrating further. This in turn causes a painful inflammatory response for her. The veterinarians highly recommend for her to have surgery to repair this, as the saliva etc will keep building up, therefore need drained periodically over time, if it is not done. That would not be an enjoyable life for any dog, especially one in a shelter. Unfortunately like most surgeries, this is going to cost a pretty penny. The average cost of surgery needed is $1,500. Being a non-profit business, this will be very difficult to pay for. So please, if you can help in any way (no matter how big or small), anything helps! Even if you are unable to donate, please share this with your friends and spread the word so this can get taken care of ASAP!

Sialocele Sublingual en gatos🐱🐈👅 La sialocele o mucocele es la ruptura de una glándula o conducto salivar que produce la extravasación, acumulación de saliva en los tejidos blandos cercanos a la glándula salival. Generalmente lo siaceles(Ránula) son muy raros en los felinos, mas comunes en perros. Sin embargo lo mucoceles(caracterizados por inflamación intraoral sublingual) es la forma mas común de mucocele en felinos. En los gatos se presentan 5 tipos de glándulas salivales(mandibular, sublingual, parotida, cigomatica y molar) en perros(mandibular, sublingual, parótida, cigomática). Las causas de sialocele suelen ser traumaticas🏹🚗 (mas comunes), tumorales y predisposición congénita individual siendo esta la mas rara🐶🐱. Diagnostico: por aspiración y citologia, sialografia, ultrasonido o tomografia computarizada. Tratamiento: el tratamiento varia de acuerdo a la presentación del sialocele. #vet #dog #cat #medicineveterinary #mascotas #clinicaveterinaria #inspiracionveterinaria #medicinaveterinaria #veterinariapractica ¿Te gusto el contenido? comparte para que lo sepan tus amigos!
