Barbara, sorry to hear about Tigris' tooth! I, too, was surprised to hear from my vet about Miley needing 5 extractions but having little tartar on her teeth. I was told that she had bad enamel on her teeth and that was the cause. I figure she will be toothless by the time she is ten.

Surely hope Tigris has a quick recovery from his dental work. From what my vet said, decaying teeth, below the gum can be quite annoying to cats and quite painful as well. Since these little furry pets never tell us what is going on with them, until the last moment, how are we to know? I guess that is why annual visits are so very important.

Lots of furry hugs to everyone there...... I bet Tigris will be fine....just a little sore....my vet also had me pill Miley after her dental surgery......that was no fun!

Good luck and keep us posted!
