This is Molly
We got her from a rescue. Unfortunately, while she was there, she caught calicivirus, which led to stomatitis. Her body thought her teeth were invaders. She couldn't eat because of the pain
The vet said they needed to remove all her teeth - but don't worry, cats don't need teeth
Okay
In the end, they removed all but the canines - and she has been fine. She eats happily now. And she eats a lot
So I guess cats don't really need teeth

@rufustheduck Glad Molly is happy & thriving! I would have never guessed cats didn't need all their teeth.
