Does anyone have any more links about cat cavities..I just want to make sure mine doesn't have one and so I was looking for one with pictures of how a normal/without cavity mouth should look like.

I don't have any links to healthy teeth pics, but here is another link that describes how to look in your kitty's mouth and what to look for.

*edit* - This is a link that shows healthy teeth and early-late stages of gingivitis. It contains pictures of a dog's mouth, but what to look for is the same for cats.

Omg I saw the picture for Malignant lymphosarcoma in the first link and that really shocked me. Which reminds me, do cats teeth have to be professionally cleaned every year if I don't brush it myself for them :?:

My vet just sent me a notice but I don't want to do it if it means having to put them out ......... which they may have to.

You need to get a dental cleaning only when the tartar builds up. That may be one year, or it may be five. The cat has to be put under anaesthetic in order to have their teeth cleaned.

laffs that link shocked Dylan... not because of the content - but because of the daft music that suddenly sdtarted blaring out and wakened him from his sleep )

Sorry had to add that
