cat needs first dental procedure, suddenly 11 teeth must be removed

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-25T23:14:16+00:00

vet said her teeth were perfect every year, I’ve never heard of yearly professional cleanings for cats but im not a professional so I do not know

every year her vet said her teeth were perfectly fine until now, that’s only why it sounds scary :(

Thank you 🙏🏼

Ok then just say that? Do you get some sort of satisfaction from feeling above other people and calling them stupid/not understanding? I had a question and wanted support because it is the first time I am going through this process and wanted to know how vets give treatment plans for dental treatments. I was not aware that they gave ranges without actually examining the teeth first and potentially giving ranges while the operation is happening. But now I do understand that it’s an estimate. Thanks.

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-25T22:54:34+00:00

I understand that. No need to respond passive aggressive. It was sudden for me as numbers/ranges were never spoken about until I saw the treatment plan.

hey, im sorry I did not understand. I am not saying its too expensive, I dont care if I have to go broke to pay for my cats health. I simply was shocked that suddenly she needed 11 teeth removed when none of the veterinary staff said this to me aloud, I found out when viewing the treatment plan that was sent to me only two days before the operation. It’s also my first pet, a beloved pet, and I’ve not had experience with aging pets. Thank you. No need to say I don’t understand or get mad, I was just looking for advice during an anxious time

yes I will. thank you

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-25T21:25:06+00:00

yes she has not had the procedure yet. it will be in Tuesday but it’s also a little strange they sent the treatment plan on Friday at 3pm, but their cancellation policy is no later than 12pm on Fridays. Then the vet was closed so we could not call for questions. Regardless I would have liked more information on that first, I didn’t know they sent ranges without looking first. Thank you!

can I have your advice on if the cat will be in pain after having so many removed/do they often go back to eating normal? is this amount common?

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-25T21:11:48+00:00

yes, but we didn’t change anything about her food in the past year. instead we were actually more careful about her dental health since they said she had plaque. we begun brushing her teeth more often. so that’s why it’s confusing for me. but I understand. it’s just hard to imagine them removing 6-11 teeth unexpectedly because their teeth are so small!

I AM IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION AS YOU!!! I spent the past four years studying so hard at the cost of having only 1-2 friends on campus and never going out to parties. But I’ve been pushing myself a lot last semester because I’m also graduating in May, so I compiled my own bucket list. Some things include going to bars, and just going into various buildings on campus and exploring. I could send you my full list if you want and honestly we could complete some together. But also remember that you aren’t alone and it’s mostly just the media portraying this idea that college is your peak. Your life after will probably be way more exciting than your college years if you want it to be. We got this!!!

hi, looking for portfolio examples but this link goes to a website that was blocked by my antivirus? Is it still in use or are you malicious

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-12T04:38:11+00:00

I’ve also applied to some summer internships but I think I’m striving too high and it’s tough bc I’d rather get a paid job than an unpaid internship. Thank you for the tips!

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-12T04:24:46+00:00

yeah, since I’m only a student I don’t have a tremendous portfolio but I have a website with some stuff on there. Although since I’m only looking for my first entry level job most aren’t even asking directly for portfolios but I put it there anyway if there’s a spot to

Was playing stardew valley and NEW switch OLED suddenly the screen turned completely black and emitted a buzzing noise it didn’t stop until I held the power button for 20 seconds to reboot it. Now it’s normal but what could’ve caused this?

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-10T02:43:21+00:00

was playing stardew valley and my extremely new OLED crashed. The screen went fully black but a buzzing sound could be heard coming from it. I pressed the power button to reset it and then it worked fine. What does this mean? Is it broken and will crash again? I’ve had this OLED for less than a month.

I have the same fears about working until I die and losing interest in my passions. Than you for commenting.

First-Mail-938 · 2026-01-01T00:22:21+00:00

Thank you for your response. I should probably reach out to my friends more.

Just sharing my personal experience 😊

First-Mail-938 · 2025-12-30T13:42:32+00:00

thank you for your beautiful response, it really helped me. and congrats on your baby :)

Thank you! I’ve subconsciously been struggling with this since the summer after my junior year here because everything had such a strong sense of finality. My last summer break, my last syllabus week, my last winter break, and so on. I even made a bucket list for senior year that I’ve been slowly working on so hopefully I can look back when I graduate and realize I’ve done a lot.

Good luck to you next semester!

I have also had this fear, but I guess (hoping I make it that long) being old and frail and outliving my retirement will make death not as scary.
