Sadie and her chipped tooth

 More than a year ago, I noticed that the end of one of Sadie's canines was chipped. The vet took a look and said it seemed ok. I recently noticed that more was chipped off while I was brushing her, and called the vet. We have a "lookie" appointment today and a tentative dental scheduled for next week. I fear she's going to need it removed.

Here is a (not great) photo that Jim helped me get.

*hugs* (and I'm impressed you can get that close to any feline's teeth)

Cat teeth are surprisingly brittle, per our veterinarian.
If it's going to go bad or start to hurt, best to get it removed now, even though we know Sadie isn't going to be happy with anyone.
