Just got home from a 2 day stay out of town for my son's specialist doctor appointments. Before we left Mr. Copper was fine, and he ate last week. Get home today and thought he was dead.. His neck/jawline and front 1/3 or so of his body is swollen and "lumpy". He is also showing a preference of keeping his head craned backwards. He feels squishy, like water accumulation under the skin. Seems lethargic. Taking him to his vet first thing tomorrow A.M. but hoping someone has some words of experience/answers beforehand, and if not it's good documentation.
