Cats don't care if they have teeth or not for eating,...can eat it without any contact to his teeth at all, just scoop the pieces and swallow,
I know that's how it's supposed to work... but she does still have her lower canines, and I've noticed that when she is mouthing the food, she will sometimes catch her upper lip with them.... basically biting her lip quite frequently, since there is nothing above to keep it clear.
What makes you think that? Have you tried the baby food or wet food to get her to eat?
Yep. Did that last night, and she wouldn't touch it. She'd lick it off her lip when we put it there, but wouldn't eat it on her own.
I ended up trying to syringe feed it to her, and that was a complete disaster.
Now I'm afraid feeding time has become such a trauma, that she just doesn't want any part of it....
Plus, now she runs from me.
I'm frustrated to tears, and she's mad and scared...
Maybe we'll just take a break today. If she eats, she eats; if not, then maybe tomorrow.
