Dental health in cats is sometimes overlooked. Because they are such resilient animals, cats will typically prefer to feed over starvation, regardless of the anguish and suffering it causes them.
Cats can therefore have fairly serious dental issues without ever exhibiting any symptoms. We are responsible for taking the same care of our cats' mouths as we do with the rest of them. Visit Instachew for more.

15 days till her surgery 😮‍💨
She’s none the wiser but I’m an anxious mess 😭 the life of a cat mom I guess. My relatives keep asking us when we’re gonna have kids but I don’t think I could do it, I’m already stressed with a fur baby, a real baby would kill me.
I just don’t want her to get worse. Kiki is feline leukemia positive which is a disease that attacks her immune system, so any health problem she faces is so much worse. We knew all the risks before we adopted her, we really wanted to give her as good of a life as we could. So far we’ve been so blessed, besides a few colds and ear infections she’s been doing really good. This gum disease is the first major thing she’s had 😭
I’ve been posting a lot about it, if you’ve seen these before you’re probably sick of them. But I love this cat and will do anything to help her.
The cost of her dental surgery is estimated to be $1200 that covers the cleaning, any tooth extractions and her medication. We set up a gofundme, if anyone is able to donate we would be forever grateful. If not, any likes or shares would be so appreciated.
We love this cat and want to keep her as healthy and happy as we can.

hello friends! I won't be making a GoFundMe for this, since I thankfully don't have to choose between buying groceries & getting vet care for my cat Peggy, but things are a lil *tight* bc of a series of unfortunate financial events (which I will list below the cut for those interested) so if anyone has a few bucks to spare and wants to help me offset the $485 mysterious lump removal surgery my lil baby is getting on Tuesday, I would greatly appreciate it

heyoo if you wanna hear the money shit that's plagued us you are in the correct place. let us begin our chronicle in August, when I made the grand decision to go back to college for a school media specialist certification. I am enjoying it v much and do not regret it at all, but it did mean that I left my decently paying but incredibly toxic retail job and went back to getting paid beans as an adjunct professor at a community college + had to pay 3k in tuition
next Luna, my loveable but temperamental 2011 Ford Fiesta, started having Problems™️, including but not limited to: water pump replacement (which for some fuckall reason on my car requires cutting & replacing the timing belt?? which of course means it cost more), downstream oxygen sensor replacement, and a new set of front tires bc those bitches were BALD (you could literally see the steel coming out of the side). to add fuel to the fire of my ongoing anxieties, her check engine light comes on and off every few days, it's a perpetual game of chicken. when I was able to catch it on and get it checked she reported a catalytic system issue, which has in the past been cured by a bottle of cataclean, so of course she needed that too. all of which adds up to the tune of about 1.5k (thankfully she's paid off but like she's only worth 2.5k so if she keeps having issues i am SOL)
during all of the back and forth with Luna, my partner has been having dental appointments for ongoing teeth issues. we were under a time crunch to get those taken care of since she turned 26 in October, and in the great land of America that means she was kicked off of her dad's insurance on Halloween. so, after a couple appointments that included tooth extraction and the making of a denture set in exchange for CareCredit agreements, we're in 2.1k of medical debt for that (she also is now without insurance so that's fun)
and, the cherry on top and the thing that has pushed me to appeal to the Internet, a few weeks ago we found two mysterious lumps on my cat Peggy Sue's hip, which are scheduled to be removed and sent off to a lab on Tuesday. I won't retell the whole story here, but you can check the "Peggy Sue" tag on my blog for a few more in depth posts on the situation. overall her care adds up to around $900, $485 of that which is the Tuesday surgery that I'm driving to another state for (my vet was crazy expensive so I'm going to a friend's recommendation)
anyway, I know that I'm lucky to even be able to cover all of these via savings and credit cards without it threatening my food/housing, but things are, understandably, a bit tight. I hate asking for help for myself, but if anyone wants to help take care of my cat, I would greatly appreciate it
or, if you prefer to buy things, I will be listing some collectable Barbies on my eBay in the next week or so, if you're interested in that I can send you my eBay page
pic of Peggy for getting this far, thank you <3

The Hidden Epidemic: Oral Health Issues in Cats
Oral health issues in cats often go overlooked, but are one of the most essential care needs for their health and wellbeing!
Oral Health Issues in Cats Cats are renowned for their independence, agility, and grace, but one aspect of their well-being often goes overlooked: their oral health. While many cat owners dutifully ensure their feline companions are well-fed and receive regular veterinary check-ups, dental health is an area that’s frequently neglected. This negligence comes at a high cost, as dental issues in…

Maintaining Your Pet's Dental Health: Tips for a Bright Smile
Introduction:
Your pet's grin is more than just adorable—it's a window into their overall health and happiness. Just like us, our furry companions need proper dental care to ensure they lead healthy and vibrant lives. Neglecting their dental hygiene can lead to serious health issues down the road. So, let's delve into some paw-some tips and tricks to maintain your pet's dental health and keep those tails wagging with joy!
Tumblr media
Pet dental care is often overlooked, but it's essential for their well-being. Just imagine if we never brushed our teeth or went to the dentist—our mouths would be a mess! The same goes for our pets. Here are some simple yet effective ways to keep your furry friend's dental health in check:
Brushing Basics:
Much like we brush our teeth, your pet's teeth need regular cleaning too. Invest in a pet-specific toothbrush and toothpaste, as human toothpaste can upset their stomachs. Start slowly, introduce the toothbrush and toothpaste gradually, and make it a positive experience with lots of praise and treats. Aim to brush your pet's teeth at least 2-3 times a week to prevent plaque buildup and tartar formation.
Chew on This:
Chewing is nature's toothbrush for pets. Providing your furry friend with appropriate chew toys or dental chews can help scrape away plaque and tartar, keeping their teeth clean and their gums healthy. Look for toys specifically designed for dental health, such as those with textured surfaces or dental treats with enzymes that fight plaque.
Watch Their Diet:
What your pet eats plays a significant role in their dental health. Opt for high-quality pet food that promotes dental health, such as formulations designed to reduce plaque and tartar buildup. Avoid feeding them table scraps or sugary treats, as these can contribute to dental issues like cavities and gum disease. Additionally, consider incorporating crunchy fruits and vegetables into their diet, like carrots or apple slices, which can help clean teeth naturally.
Regular Vet Checkups:
Regular veterinary check-ups are essential for ensuring your pet's wellness care, which encompasses their dental health. Your veterinarian plays a pivotal role in conducting comprehensive dental assessments and advising on professional cleanings if required. Early detection of dental issues like gum disease or tooth decay during these visits prevents them from developing into more severe complications.
Stay Alert to Signs of Trouble:
As a pet parent, it's essential to stay vigilant and watch for any signs of dental issues in your furry friend. Common indicators of dental problems include bad breath, swollen or bleeding gums, difficulty chewing, drooling excessively, or a reluctance to eat. If you notice any of these signs, don't hesitate to consult your pet veterinarian for further evaluation and treatment.
Conclusion:
A radiant smile not only brightens our day but also indicates good health and well-being in our beloved pets. By incorporating these pet dental care tips into your pet care routine, you can ensure that your furry friend maintains optimal dental health for years to come. Remember, a little extra effort now can lead to a lifetime of positively perfect smiles and countless moments of joy shared with your pet. So, let's keep those tails wagging and those teeth sparkling!

I need to find a convincing job title that explains why I rarely exit the house alone to go anywhere but a park or the pharmacy, I’ve said cat wrangling and lion taming as suggestions to my mom but I think I’ve settled on the most viable one: freelance writing for exposure. No you cannot read my work it is strictly mildly historical fiction/romance. No I cannot make money with it. It would be very illegal. Quit asking. Fuck you I tame lions I’m not unemployed or between things, I have plenty of job, it’s exclusively my unmonetizable horny hobby that’s my real job

Nothing is more stressful than owning an animal as a minor and not having to plan out vet visits, then moving as an adult and having to find a new vet and planning out vet visits
There are 2 vets in the immediate area, and one of them is being accused of working with puppy mills (I only have cats) but also a lot of negative reviews for poor service and the likes
So I go looking at the other one, and it has some negative reviews, but after looking into them, they all seemingly are the fault of the owners, so I'm confident with them
But also, why can't vets label the price ranges of the things so I know kinda what to expect to spend? My mom got my brother's cat in at the old vet for the same thing I'm looking for, and it was like 300$, but I'm not sure at this new vet what it will end up costing 😩😩😩😩😩
