Teeth cleaning

If it is a "complimentary" pedicure isn't the $0.00 rather redundant????

That's like saying "Free -- you pay nothing!"

Ah well...marketing folks... :rolleyes: ;) :D

...or a "free gift"

I'm sorry to hear that Robin's teeth aren't in the best shape:( but hopefully her teeth cleaning will go well and I also hope that she won't need any extractions. It sounds like she'll be in very good hands. I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers. Please continue to keep us updated about her.

Poor little Robin. She'll feel so much better, though, and so will you. Your bank balance, that's another story. Well, w/your discount, maybe you can get your own pedicure. ;)

Just talking about toothbrushes, the vet nurse told me not to buy a special toothbrush for the cat, just buy a babies one at the supermarket, does the same trick and less expensive,mind you i do not clean any of their teeth at this stage, but after they get some dental treatment, i would like to at least try and maintain the treatment and keep their teeth good.

She's home again, less 4 teeth. Four of them!!! :eek:

She was really wobbly at first, so against her protests, I kept her in the carrier for about 2 more hours. After that, I let her out and her rear end didn't immediately flop to the ground, so I figured she was doing better. She wobbled to the litter box and had a nice big pee pee, then headed for the food bowl. I had put some wet food out for her, but she bypassed that and looked for the bowl with the hard food! :eek: Needless to say, I grabbed that away from her and put it up where she can't get it for the time being.

So over all she's doing well. Wish I could say the same for her daddy. :rolleyes: He always gets so upset whenever the snots need to have anything done. I think whenever I take them in, I should ask the vet for a sedative for daddy too. :rolleyes:

Jackie didn't miss her a bit while she was gone, but boy was he curious about her and all the smells all over her when she got back. When she first got home, she was so out of it she just kind of wobbled on past him, but I know she's feeling better now because she is growling and squeeking at him again. :rolleyes: :)

Oh, and the damages weren't as bad as I expected. The final number came in less than the original quote, even with the 4 extractions.

Thanks everybody, for your thoughts and prayers. She is resting comfortably on her daddy's tummy right now. Hopefully that's making them both feel better. ;)

THANKS, God ~ Fur takin care of lil Miz Robin!

We thunk tomorrow was Thursday ... we bad! :(

Debbie,Thanks for the update.:) I'm glad to hear that everything went well, that it wasn't too expensive, and that Robin is now home and doing well. I hope that she'll continue to do well.:)

Four teeth?! :eek: Just the same as my poor Sammy had out. Glad to hear that Robyn is recuperating nicely. Perhaps her nice pedicure is cheering her up.

Glad to hear she's doing better. Four teeth, eh? My Puddy had 6 extracted on her very first teeth cleaning. Since then I've changed vets and Dr. Lee does everything in his power to save teeth. I think the previous vet was yank happy. I'm glad to hear that your sweetie is steady as she goes and Daddy, too. :p

Poor widdle girl -- I know about the wobblies :) Eve was just like a little drunk when she got home from her dental and so quiet, it was scary :rolleyes: I'm happy to hear everything went well and she's getting her well deserved cuddles.

And daddies - aren't they just something else??

We just got home from vacation and Evie was at kitty camp on Bowen Island. Poor daddy suffered from Evie withdrawal the entire week :eek: in fact, he woke almost every morning to tell me he had another Evie dream :rolleyes: Actually I'm just as bad :rolleyes: I couldn't believe how much I missed the little squirt - even her bratkat moments :) They sure have us well trained, don't they ;)

If you want to try tooth-cleaning treats, C.E.T. chews come in both poultry and fish flavors, and don't just scrape the tartar off with crunchiness, they use enzymes to jump-start the cat's own tartar-fighting capability. And Smudge says that the fish ones taste delightful! (Although, this being American Thanksgiving, he got a different treat to gobble today.)

Love, Columbine

Thanks again everyone. Robin is back to adorable little self now. As a matter of fact, she seems better than ever. :D I forgot to ask the vet which particular teeth he pulled, but one day she had a really big yawn and I noticed a big empty space, so that must have been one of them. ;)
