Yes I check, after Filou had lost one tooth! Poor Xeline (the Aby my friend took in) had 3 bad teeth already at the age of 2 which made her grumpy and made her first owner (a breeder ) think she could not get along with the other cats!

Some Abys seem to be prone to gingivitis and parodontitis but even Tigris who is as healthy as can be had one tooth cleaning in his 7 years.

All the best for Spike who looks like a handsome and manly boy

But don't feel guilty - you never learn enough about cats!
