Small Scare with Luxor Yesterday
I was in a funk all day yesterday - so I decided to try to take a nap. I noticed Luxor was really grooming his self for a while, so I looked up and he had blood on his chest and leg. Not a lot, but enough to make me freak out (which isn't very much anyway). So I checked him all over, no cuts. I checked Stoli, no cuts. They hadn't been fighting. His lip looked pink. I let him be, Anthony and I watched him grooming later in the day and it happened again. We cleaned it up right away so the blood didn't get on his fur and make him groom harder. It still looked like his lip but I noticed his tongue was red too.
We called his vet, they weren't too worried, they said cats sometimes scratch themselves if their claws are sharp. Luxor HATES when we clip his nails, and I waited too long - I clipped them yesterday. All of them.
I went to bed and it happened again, his fur was wet he was grooming so much. I washed him down and then dried him then played with him to get his mind off of grooming. I had nightmares all night and all day I got all queasy thinking about the blood.
I would be REALLY worried if something else was wrong with him. But he's eating well, playing hard, sleeping normally, litter box is normal, and only grooming a little more than normal - because of the blood.
