My vet said he is not very painful if having some grinding teeth sound when eating, it is not worth to take the pain relief with some side effect. He need to learn how to eat can reduce the discomfort feeling. He may take several weeks to learn.
He will not see the vet this year, he need some time to recover after 2 anesthesia within 3 weeks. His only issue is still in pain when eating, I will give him full warm wet food to reduce this issue or give a low dose pain relief to him. Next Vet visit may be 2-3 months later if he is still in...
I will heat the food if it take out from refrigerator. The target food temperature is 30-35°C that he is willing to eat for a while, when the food cool down, he seem feeling more discomfort and turn away.
My new vet offer him gabapentin if he cannot eat a whole can of A/D wet food each day. Although he is grinding his teeth when eating and lack of appetite, he still can finish a whole can when I put his dish near his mouth and he will eat slowly or turn away but he will come back to finish his...
He haven't take the gabapentin yet, but I think it should be the time to give him gabapentin if he is still in pain on 08 December 2023. I will call the new vet to discuss about his condition.

I think my cat condition is similar to your cat. He still in pain when eating but without any pain relief. He is willing to eat AD wet food with pain but not the other wet food. My cat is very lazy too, about 20 hours on the bed and sleep like a pig. By all calculations, he is appetite can eat...
Yes, I think Tramadol is not the right pain relief for my cat that the side effect is too unacceptable. I make the appointment to new vet and ask for the second opinion about my cat issues. I want to have a good pain control to my cat that I do not want to see my cat eating painfully.
