Does your cat do this? I'm concerned. *Pidge is home *pix 6/4*

Best of wishes for Puddy and Pidgie!

Someone else on PT was talking about a solution that they had to brush over the surface of their cat's teeth - kind of like just soaking a q tip and drawing over the tooth surface. I wonder if that would work for Puddy it an anesthetic cleaning is not an option?

Pidgie - even if she does need calming, I wonder why she would have to be knocked right out? Maybe it is less stressful than being sedated and 'sort of' knowing what is going on?

PT Prayers for those gorgeous girls...we need pics of the fashionable Lioness Pidge!

Prayers and positive affirmations on the way!

Puddy's blood work is going to come back with GREAT results and her tongue will be as normal as can be and her dental will go wonderfully!!!
Pigeon's blood work will also come back with GREAT results and her shaving will go off without a hitch!
(these are the affirmations )

I'm sure Pidgie is going to feel so fresh and fancy free once her coat is short.
Please keep us updated!

Good thoughts and prayers coming Puddy's, Pidge's and your way!

I thought when JenL was going to groom Jorge he would have a heart attack, but he was a trooper and came through it fine! I hope that Pidge will have an easy go of it as well!

I'll be sure to take pix but my camera isn't very good and my photo skills are even worse.

Maybe the vet or the assistant could do 'before and after' pics for you?

I hope that everything turns out fine. I'll be keeping both of them in my thoughts and prayers.

Catty1, that was me. It's C.E.T. Oral Hygiene Rinse For Cats & Dogs. I don't know how much it would help on an animal with severe gingivitis and bad teeth though. It will help prevent plaque and tartar from forming and will also help reduce bad breath. Storm had a dental cleaning and 2 small teeth removed in early May and I'm now using this on him every night so hopefully this will help his teeth and gums to stay healthy. I'm also trying to use it on my other cats when I can.

I'm going to ask my vet about it anyhow. I may be able to use it on my other cats. Pidge has never had a vet visit for anything other than checkups. She's never sick and has had her teeth cleaned but none were ever pulled. My Boo is the same way and he's 16 1/2. So if I can prevent problems at this stage, it's worth it, except that my seniors get so stressed now if I groom them or pill them. (Boo is on Clomicalm and that's it.) I'm still going to ask, though.
