HELP PLEASE! My cat just fell from upstairs accidentally and bruised her face with a bleeding tooth! What can I do to help her right now as vet service is not available at the moment ?!! Thank you! Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 5 months and 19 days old

Keep little Muse calm and quiet and schedule a vet visit as soon as possible to evaluate the tooth and get pain medication if needed. It’s hard to tell if that adult canine is damaged or not- if so, dental X-rays or a dental cleaning and extraction may be recommended. If she seems not to want to eat, offer some canned food which may be easier to eat with a hurt mouth. I absolutely DO NOT recommend giving any sort of over the counter pain medication to Muse as they can be life-threatening and can interfere with medications your vet may want to use.
