Lower Canine #

Where # = 1 or 2 (1 if cat's left, 2 if cat's right)

Or Lower C1/Lower C2

I feel really bad for her. It must be really painfull. She keeps shaking her head, making sneezing noises. Nothing I can do for her now.

She's a bitch to get into the cage too.

Is this an indoor cat? how did it get that kind of injury?

Sounds sore, hope it's not too expensive.

Shoot teh cat and spare yourself some money. No, honestly take her/him to the vet asap and get it fixed. Make sure you give her/him warm milk before leaving as it'll make the car calmer.

It isn't that hard. As they get older their teeth start deteriorating, just like people. My kitty is 13yrs old now. She's an indoor cat.

I just came back from the vet and he extracted the tooth and gave her a shot of antibiotics. He said she might lose some more teeth soon. I have to watch for infection, feed her soft food, etc.

Cost me $80.
