Hello everyone,
I am an inexperienced mom of my 5 months old boy (for 2 months). Lately, my cat had a very bad breath and I read that I had to check his teeth. There was some redness in his gum and in order to check it more closely I put my two fingers on two sides of the back of his month and pressed a little to open his mouth. I don't think I was harsh but when I checked his mouth I realized that one of his teeth was on his tongue and he swallowed it! Do you think that it was a baby teeth? Or did I do something wrong? I feel like a terrible parent... In terms of food, he only eats wet (Wellness Signature +Weruva) and when I give any dry treats, he always had a habit of swallowing them without chewing. Thank you for your help!
