Allen has gained sooo much weight since eating Kitten Chow daily so much that he no longer can properly groom himself, so he's got really bad stinky butt syndrone and now, he's got a bad case of feline acne because he's not grooming his face either... but he's grooming the others :rolleyes:
In this photo you can see how bad his acne is. Poor pretty white chin. :(

I was cleaning Allen's feline acne this morning, and noticed his teeth seem to have a build-up of tartar and his gums have a deep pink ridge above the worst teeth. Does this mean he's got some tooth/gum issues? He's only 4 (exactly 4 as his birthday is somewhere around the middle of March)
I will be making an appointment for his yearly in the next month or so, but looking at his teeth now I'm worried, and I need to know if I should start stashing money away to pay for a dental workup.
Doesn't 4 seem so young to have dental issues? He's only ever been fed dry food, and stuff that is supposed to specially formulated for dental health.
Oh, and he's been on Weight Management food for the past week, and has lost a wee bit of weight already.
