Big boy lost a tooth?

I have a Persian kitty 8 months old. I just noticed that he lost one of his canine tooth (big front tooth) at the upper left. I know kittens lose teeth during 2-4 months old but my big boy is already 8 months old. Could it be possible that he is still losing his baby teeth at this age? Please help.





Thx much!

Try taking him to the pet dentist. I have a cat that is already 1 year old and he hasn't lost all of his teeth yet. That's okay, though. If you're worried take him to the pet dentist. We just let out cat loose them on his own, and we'll only take him there for checkups and if he's in pain or need.
Reply:Its completely normal! Just have a check that the whole tooth is out and that he hasn't broken it but i think you'll find the whole tooth is out and a new one is on its way.
Reply:I have a male cat and when he was around a year he still was losing some of his teeth just like babies they lose there teeth at different times so dont worry he will be fine.
Reply:Hiya hon :o) xx It's still possible that big boy is losing his baby teeth here - when I had my big Eric I noticed that his big teeth were still coming through at 10 months old!! I guess cats are as different as we are when it comes to teeth - if you are concerned, please talk to your vet but it seems pretty normal to me - after all, your big fella is still a kitten: he's not a young adult until he gets to 1 years old and over!! xx
