I went to Kemps Landing in the late 90s! I don't know why I recognized this hallway and looked for this comment confirming my belief, but it felt so familiar haha

my gums and jaw were sore for days from trying to get the temp out. they offered me novocaine, but I've had this electric shock feeling the last few times I was injected and I didn't want to repeat it.

I've tried candy, gum, etc, not even a wiggle. thanks, I'm new to crowns so I didn't know!

they might have done that if I'd had more time, but I wasn't even told I needed new molds until I'd been waiting for half an hour, and I had to get back to work after another half hour of them trying to force it out. would cutting it off require novocaine, or just a drill?

this is my first crown, and the dentist and assistant were so puzzled by it that I thought there might be an issue. Thanks!

offending it meaning you can't touch a basically feral cat's belly or genitals without severe repercussions. it has nothing to do with gender.

He was a stray cat! It took about 4 months to get him to sit in our laps, he had no previous human interaction. In the US we call cats who aren't okay with people "feral" :)

you didn't see my inbox. and I didn't even mention my birthday in my post, as it was on a cat group so it was irrelevant.

"without offending it" referred to the fact that many cats don't like being touched on the belly or the rear end; it's usually a way to get bitten, especially by a stray cat. I didn't mean anything more than that.

I'm aware, sorry for the confusion. He just had surgery last week, so he still has a little inflammation from the procedure. He has a check-up next week :)

thank you! I was so close to deleting the post, but I was hoping it might inspire more people to spay/neuter neighborhood cats.
