DENTAL WORK FOR THE CAT
I think my cat needs braces.
I discovered this after realizing that she'd been smacking her lips in an odd way for a day and half. Naturally, I fought with her to pry open her mouth just to see one missing tooth, and another one that is hanging at a precarious angle.
A call home to Michigan to the parents, who are completely unqualified to advise anyone on the periodontal health of man or beast, confirms she might still be losing baby teeth.
I don't know. I've been envisioning retainers and bite splints and teeny, tiny little kitty braces, which all add up to major bucks.
Why doesn't someone genetically engineer a self-cleaning animal? That is what I want to know.
