Stomatitis in Cats

Inflammation of the mucous lining of any of the structures in the mouth, which may involve the cheeks, gums, tongue, lips, and roof or floor of the mouth. The word “stomatitis” literally means inflammation of the mouth. (reference: Medical Dictionary)

By appointment time for both cats, I made a recent purchase of cat food. Ugh.
