Hi, everyone. It's been a year since I posted, but I hang around and read a lot!
Nervous about my cat, Turtle, getting her teeth cleaned tomorrow and just wanted to hear others' experiences. She went in December because of some drooling and not wanting to eat. Had a little gingivitis and tartar, but the vet sad it wasn't that bad. Went on antibiotics for that and she got better. Now I'm getting the teeth cleaned. She's 10-1/2 and never had them cleaned before or gone under anesthesia. She's also VERY scared and stressed whenever we go to the vet, so I am really worried for her! I know it has to be done, but...
It's the vet she's always gone to, they're wonderful there, have a great reputation, and it is an extremely reasonable price. Just don't know what to expect afterward, as I know all animals respond differently to anesthesia, etc., and I AM so stressed about leaving her there when I know she'll be so scared and about the procedure. Guess I'm the baby instead of her being my baby!! LOL
