Hi guys. I have a question. At my cat's last visit to the vet, he suggested that I get her teeth "scaled" or cleaned soon. He said her teeth are not bad, but just a light shade of yellow right now, probably b/c I had been giving her too much canned food when I mixed it with her dry food. He said it is just tartar buildup but as she gets older, it could get worse. She is only 4 years old. I feed her tart control treats, and have really cut back on the canned food, less than a teaspoon in her dinner, just for flavor.
I am a little nervous to get her teeth scaled just b/c she would have to be put under anesthesia (sp?). I know there is always a risk with that. Also, I dont know if she would have to stay over night... I would be a nervous wreck! lol... My mom says I worry too much, she's probably right! But hey, Andie is my baby! Pets are like kids!
Has anyone gotten this procedure done to their cat? Was it a good idea? Any info would be appreciated...
