When he starts acting odd we always check his gums first.

In case of internal bleeding and shock, there's often cyanosis as well...but he never looked for these signs in cats..thank you for this ~ and we're glad that the dog survived :)Catshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00271152779811662714noreply@blogger.com
