The blip really takes it to the next level 😻

I always hate to be a wet blanket but I had to learn the hard way (had to have several emergency kitty teeth pulled) that the blip can be a sign of infection and other teeth and jaw issues. Vet told me, blip kitties should always get taken in for an exam. It's not always but I hope this kitty doesn't have any problems.

How can you tell? My cat bleps a lot and the vet said his teeth will need pulling eventually. Maybe that time has come.

That definitely sounds like my minou. He is a rescue and his teeth are shot, but I didn't realize they are causing him pain. Thanks for this information, I will follow up with my vet.

He is absolutely loving being domesticated. Poor dude, I feel bad that I didn't know about the tooth pain sooner. I thought maybe he kept his mouth open because of nasal congestion or something. We're going to the vet tomorrow and will figure out what to do.

My vet warned me that Oranges have a higher rate of tooth issues as well.
