The Vet Wanted To Remove All My Cat's Teeth

[kb2yjx]

The Persian that we rescued in August, 2000, Raven(COTD 12/9/04) had all her teeth removed because they were so badly decayed. If the teeth are not cared for, heart or kidney problems can result. In Raven's case, she has been a kidney cat since November, 2000. If Raven had remained with her previous owner, she would be dead. That is how poorly she was "cared" for. Now she has a huge appetite, gets sq fluids twice a week. Raven is 10 and is doing very well!!!

I would get a second opinion before I let him touch my cat but if they are indeed bad, they will need to come out or the kitty will have a lot of problems.

Pookie, my tuxedo, had 11 teeth pulled and I cried and cried in the vet's reception area, thinking he would be maimed for life, until I saw Pookie and he seemed just fine. Went home and started eating dry and wet food right away, in huge quantities. Hasn't stopped eating. He gags occasionally, but he handles it. And is still a trim 6 lbs. 8 ozs. despite several vet check-ups and all my efforts to fatten him up a little.
