We noticed that our cat's bottom gums are red. It looks like her upper back teeth penetrate the gums at the bottom.
Last week we took her to the vet and she was diagnosed with gingivitis!
She was given a Depo Medrol shot, which we totally hate!
The vet said that possibly we gonna have to pull both upper teeth. I still dont understand how the teeth penetrating the gums causing inflamation and gingivitis are connected!
We bought today the dental care kit at Petsmart (toothbrush and paste), we hope that it will help to fight the gingivitis.
Any suggestions how to fight the gingivitis and what could we possibly do to avoid pulling our kittys teeth out! Without them our kitty will not be able to eat hard food, that means no treats! She is only 1.5 years old and we hate it!
Thank you!
