my kitten Jack is going on 6 months old (February 8th is his half year birthday!). I know literally nothing about cats, and I especially know nothing about kittens. He is the first one I have and the only pet I have had since living on my own, so it’s a huge, brand new responsibility for me.
His adult teeth are growing in, and he’s got double cainines right now. He had it both on the top and bottom, but the bottom have both luckily fallen out, now he just has them on the top. These do not seem to be loose at all.
My question is, tonight after work, after looking at his teeth (I do this every night since I noticed this), I noted that on the left side of his mouth, on what I am 99% sure is the baby tooth, it looks as though he has a lot of plaque by his gum line on that tooth. Is that normal? Is it okay since it’s on his baby tooth and it’s going to come out anyway? I don’t have much money, so I don’t want to take him to the vet unless it’s absolutely necessary.
I have attached the best picture I could get of it (he won’t hold still for very long, sorry for the bad quality.)
