Last time I took my kitty (2 yr old female) to the vet, the vet pointed out to me two little teeth on each side of my cat's lower jaw that had redness at the gumline. The vet told me it'd be a good idea for those teeth to get pulled sometime soon. She (vet) also said that it's common for some cats to have problems with those teeth. It often makes it difficult for them to chew their food because the gums are sore (as far as I know, my cat can crunch her Iams dry with no pain), and that it'd be better to take those problem teeth out.
Has anyone else heard of this dental situation or experienced this with their cats? Should I take my cat in to have those teeth pulled soon? I don't know yet how anesthetic will affect her, so I'm not too keen on taking her in for the procedure.
