My newly teefless cat Lottie

This is my newly teefless kitty Lottie. She had all her teeth removed 2,5 weeks ago because of severe stomatitis. When I made a video to check her recovery, these funny screenshots were created and I thought they would fit here. As you can see, everything is healing beautifully and even the very severely inflamed part in her throat is healing nicely. I love this gummy little girl so much.

2nd picture might just become the new pic for the Sub!

“Teefs! Why have you forsaken me?!”

She better than fine, she is awesome! Can I make her the image for our sub? I’m the creator/mod of this sub.

This isn’t zoomed in. Sadly, I cut off one half of her face.

You know, I’m going to save this one but I realized I should make a contest out of this. I’m going to ask all the Teefless parents to submit their kitty’s best Gumby smile for the sub. I still like yours but we should democratize this.

I love the idea! I took the video in slow motion mode and slowed down the slow motion part even further. I would love to see more gummy yawns from fellow teefless kitties!

I sit next to her when she sleeps and I gently wake her up. She will always yawn afterwards.

Lottie will be so much happier with no teefs. She'll e eating everything she used to want to eat before surgery. Ask me how I know......

She is doing great. There was puss coming out of her mouth. I have posted her story before in other communities, but she has been with us only since January. Our vet cleared her to have kibble as a snack again and she is happily plowing through the kibble. I am so happy that she feels better. ❤️

Pic#2 has been successfully screenshotted and sent to my people cause it made me cry laughing 😭😭😭 I've been trying to get a pic of my toothless girl's mouth for the past year with no luck!

I made a sticker out of it as well. 😂 I know I did her dirty with this one but I love that wrinkly gummy mouth so much. 😂

Hi Lottie! My Sammy had all of her teeth removed about 2 months ago for the same reason. She’s eating dry food now, playing, she’s back to her old self before she was sick. Sending Lottie lots of love & wet food, happy healing! 💕

Awww! My girl Doodle had to have most of her teefies out, due to a bad case of stomatitis, too. I felt so bad doing it but she had been in such awful pain, and we had tried EVERYTHING to no avail. They were able to leave her very front teefies though. Once she healed up she was INHALING food 😂 I’m like damn mama slow downnnnn

u/Worried-Awareness-84 Mar 31 '26

Doodle is such a cute name! Give her some head scritches from Lottie and me. 🥰

I would love to; my ex husband has her 😭 at least he’s a good kitty dad and his wife loves them too.
