How do I open my cat’s mouth to examine her teeth?
Posted in technique on 02/22/2009 09:38 am by HealinPowerlynmarie asked:
My cat is having dental problems and the vet told me to check her back teeth to see if the infection is healing or getting worse. The vet has no problem with it, but I can’t seem to open her mouth in a way that allows me to see her back gums. She resists when I try to move her lips out of the way. Is there a technique for doing this that makes it easier for the vet than it is for me?

The lips back as if you dont see anything try again later dont see anything try again later dont see anything try again later dont piss off kitty youll get better time if you have someone hold the corners of time if you have.
