Baker is home now from his dental cleaning and... He has EXTRA teeth
Now the vet said this can happen quite often but NOT where his extra teeth are! Every vet in the office today had a look, I guess Baker was quite the show.
Now normally I understand there are 3 teeth behind the canines, but on the bottom Baker has 4 extras, 2 on each side.
I'll try to "show" you what I mean. The first lines are his canines

The inside pink lines are his "extras"
They are completely full grown but the problem is that plauqe is building up between them and putting pressure on his regular teeth which is causing his little mouth to be so sore.
So we have to go to the "Cat Dentist" in about 6 months if the plauqe builds up again and get these teeth removed.
Has anyone else heard of this or had it happen with cats you know?
LOL Baker is such a silly boy!
