The peculiarity of cats is that even severe pain is often endured by animals in complete silence.
However, there are a number of telling signs that should never be overlooked.
Let's figure out how a pet owner can understand that something is wrong with the animal.
Signs of dental pathologies in cats
The following telltale signs indicate that your cat is experiencing problems with its teeth and oral cavity.
Firstly, many diseases are accompanied by profuse salivation, and the saliva may contain traces of blood.
Also, problems with teeth are indicated by:
