My little Emily now has a grand total of two teeth left in her mouth. She has had chronic gingivitis all her life. Pretty much every year, when she had her teeth cleaned, she would lose another tooth or two. One year she had five extractions. On Tuesday she had three teeth removed.
She seems to be recovering fairly well. She is eating (canned food only at this point) and seems to be back to her usual self.
I've been assured that she can do just fine with almost no teeth, or even with none at all if it comes to that.
I'm just curious if anyone else here has had experience with a kitty with almost no teeth--and if so, if there are any problems I should anticipate.
