So last night I was playing with my girl Bonnie by dangling a string for her to play with. At one point she looked up at me and I noticed her mouth looked very pink. We were standing right by a sunlit window so I sun was shining right through her mouth… if that makes sense. I picked her up and gave her to my boyfriend (she is impossible to handle by myself) and took a peek inside her mouth. I noticed that half her little front teeth were missing! It almost seemed as if every second tooth was missing, she had her fangs though.

She is 9 months old so I donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t think she is losing her milk teeth. The funny thing is I remember months ago thinking how cute her mouth was because it was pink. I wonder if she came from the rescue group like that, she was a stray for 4 months before I got her at 6 months.

So, anything I should worry about? Or do some kitties in fact lose their milk teeth past 5-6 months. Anything different I need to do?

Lol my poor little girl, she looks so funny.

She's still a baby so she is still losing her baby teeth.

I remember when I got my first kitten and found a tooth in the carpet. I freaked out! I had never had a kitten before because I've always adopted older stray cats. So I had no idea that animals lost their teeth
