Please look at these pictures and comment on the deformed teeth. This
feral kitten's going in for exam and neutering Sunday and I wonder what
the vet will do to correct the problem, if anything.

Doesn't look like it would interfere with anything so I kind of doubt they
will do anything. What a patient kitty!

If I'm looking at your pictures correctly, your kitten has retained
deciduous (baby) canine teeth. Not that uncommon. Basically the adult
canine teeth just don't push out the baby teeth. Easy to fix -- pull the
baby teeth under anesthesia. But then again, I could be looking at the
pictures wrong!!!!

aaah. little furry vampire! Shaina looked like that when she was
changing from kitten teeth to permanent teeth. i think this is how
they come in cats, but then the deciduous fall out. in humans, you
can see the same thing, except the permanent teeth come in from a
different side.
so it happens often that cat's don't shed kitten teeth?
