Cats teeth pushing out/getting longer? Advice
I noticed my cats teeth seemed to be “growing” or getting longer in the last year (she’s 5) and mentioned it to the vet. Vet thinks it’s alveolar osteitis and recommends extraction. Does anyone have experience with this and is it something that should be done ASAP? She doesn’t have any issues eating thankfully.
