Scooter had the last of his teeth (besides the canines) pulled today. Poor little guy has stomatitis which means he's allergic to his own tooth enamel. The vet said it was the worst case he's ever seen but the gums around the teeth that were pulled last time are looking much better, so hopefully this will be the end of his problems.

we adopted a cat who had the same issue - also the worst our vet had seen. but a year on, and completely toothless, she's got a very healthy, pain free mouth, and is a happy little bundle of fluff. hope scooter's recovery goes just as smoothly!
