The vet just saw him.

And he says it's ok.

He's 6 years old.

Is it really ok for my cat to live with it?

My bridge girl broke 2 of her canines in half, they were like that for a while, we eventually had both of them extracted as we determined they were causing her pain.

My boy somehow broke one of his canines in half. I didn't even notice it until the vet pointed it out! We have absolutely no idea how he did it, but it's never bothered him at all. A chipped tooth isn't a big deal. It's only a problem if the tooth gets infected somehow.

How can you tell if they cause pain?
