red, lump

apologies for repeating what will probably be in every sydney blog... -___-"
dust flying from somewhere: red skies




gonna be lots of wiping in the house.


anyway.

cats have this weird lump on their bottom gum behind where the top canine meets the lower jaw:




wonder what it is. shocked cos thought it was some sort of growth, but then it was on both sides of the mouth. so was relieved. what we learned during surface anatomy: if it's symmetrical, it's normal (hopefully).


*update: i asked one of the uni lecturers and she said it's got something to do with how the canine tooth's insert into the gum (though dunno if it has an actual name or not).
