Hello all! (26f) from USA. Vet across the street from me, I have not contacted them yet as this is my boyfriend’s cat and he thinks she’s fine. TLDR: 5 year old female, unfixed, seems to be struggling to eat even soft foods. Egg is pictured in the video. I can afford veterinary care!
Okay; so. This is my boyfriend’s cat Speedy. I’ve noticed recently that she seems to be struggling to eat, and I think it’s dental related? In the attached video she’s eating an egg. But she’s chewing on it like it’s rough and difficult. I have heard that this can be a sign of dental issues. My boyfriend (his cat) thinks she’s fine and doesn’t want to waste the money but I believe she needs to go to the vet. Am I overthinking and she’s fine, or am I right? Thank you all in advance.
UPDATE: She is going to the vet!!!! Thank you all so much!
