wet food is not as good for animals teeth as dried food apparently, well thats what i got told anyway. its also bad for breath. maybe you should switch her to dry food once they are sorted so problems cant arise again if thats a possible cause. I've seen this with a dog an he got really bad teeth and cost a big vet bill and they got recommended to change to dry food. just guessing its the same with cats though.
He likes his crunchies usually, but wasn't managing them for a while, which i now know is due to toothache. I will definately attempt the dry food again once he is fully recovered. Never knew that wet food was bad for the teeth, cheeers for the heads up.
***UPDATE***
this morning Misty was booked into the vet for his extraction(s). Told Paul not to feed him anything (he did what he was told in that respect!), and i also told him not to let the cat out. I get up this morning once he went to college....HE LET THE CAT OUT :2wallbang: !!! He is such a doorkin sometimes!
Anyway, I found Misty scrounging on the neighbours doorstep, but she was out so he never got any food. Put him in the corrugated plastic carrier they provided last week (dunno where our wicker basket for him is).
I have to walk about half a mile to the vet, and yes, the little bugger escaped. He's well over 2 stone and the box was never suitable. Just saw the claws emerge from the corner, then the head, then saw his arse running off into the bushes :censor: .
He was so upset, I had to stop traffic on the road coz he was running around across the road, then back again and so on. So I carried him the rest of the way and discarded the box.
Have to phone at 2.30 to see how he is. How am I? SHREDDED! was meant to be trying on engagement rings today and on Saturday, now my hands look like they been in a mincer!
Still, he will have lurvely pearly whites after his op, as they are polishing them as well.
Will let you guys know how he is later, maybe get a few pics.
Thanks for all the advice
