Cat grinding her teeth and not eating...help!?

So my cat was brought to the Vet 3 months ago for not eating. She had a gum infection. She was X-rayed and treated with antibiotics. It didn't help. We then used revolution on her which in a few days she seemed to be completely better.


A week ago symptoms appeared again. She is eating less and grinding her teeth.


I've brought her to the vet 3 times and am fed up because we've treated her with everything. They said the next step is to do surgery.


Anyone have any ideas?


I can't afford to do surgery, I've already spent hundreds on visits, tests, and medication.

Have you thought about changing Vets??


Different antibio's may be needed...the 1st. time doesnt always work specially w/ clavamox...sometimes Baytril clears it right up. What does Revolution? have to do with her teeth??


Its a flea treatment!!!!! Fleas dont stop an animal from eating!


Surgery?? For what?? No offense...but ur so-called Vet sounds like an idiot!!


A possible dental cleaning, checkup, may need some teeth removed but not major surg! ...another dose of antibio's, get all work you've had done to date - SEEK another VET. ( Plz.) with those results, so as not to cost more $$ for duplicate work... and get you kitty the right treatment and get her outta the pain shes in.


Just think if u were the kitty- how would your mouth feel?


Good Luck %26amp; plz dont give up yet.
Reply:If you love your cat then you will do the surgery, but also keep an open mind about what it could be and look for alternatives.
