Signs your pet may be in pain:
:arrow: Unusual behavior, and/or changes in behavior
:arrow: Flinching or growling when a painful area is touched
:arrow: Chattering when sore gums are rubbed
:arrow: Loss of appetite, and/or sudden weight loss
:arrow: Limping or moving slowly or stiffly
:arrow: Reluctance to go for walks, go up or down stairs, or to jump on or off furniture
If any of these are prevelant, it may be time to schedule your pet for a trip to the vet's office. |

| We are concerned about our older cat's teeth, and if they cause him pain. We considered going to have his worse teeth pulled, but he is old, and we are afraid that use of anesthesia may not be good for an older cat. |
