Noticed bad breath on my cat, indoor/outdoor cat about 4 years old. I later noticed last night his right cheek was a little swollen, it's not massive, but you can feel it when you touch it, it's definitely puffier, right where the whiskers are. I lifted his upper lip and noticed yellowish coloration in there. I'm suspecting a rodent ulcer. No vet around here will take ANY new appointments for the next 7 days so I'm stuck here wondering what's going on until next Saturday, it's ridiculous. The cat still eats, not noticing any major behavioral changes, and the cat doesn't wince in total pain when I touch it. Any opinions? Attaching photo, you will see the yellowish coloration along the cheek wall. It looks like plaque, but on his cheek, and the cheek feels hard to the touch compared to the non-swollen cheek.
