Malik's abscessed tooth is healing well. We did extend his antibiotics and increased his dose as the first week of treatment didn't have the response we wanted. We've observed this situation with the 1993 litter when they were in retirement, and we are confident that we will be able to overcome this situation without a tooth extraction. Malik and Shadow are very compatible in retirement, sharing den space without issue and they tend to follow each other throughout the enclosure.
