well i called my vets up today and they said that because she doesnt seem to be in pain or discomfort and no blood that it should jst sort itself out on its own. they then said that i should monitor and if at any point im not happy with her behavour or she looks in pain or discomfort then to bring her in cause it means that it could have become infected so just got to keep and eye on her now and hope all will be well.
Thank you all for your help and support. I panic so much when it comes to my cat as shes my little angel and i dont know what i would do without her.

Thanks again all xxxx

In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

They take a message and get back to you later.

well i ended up calling the rspca 24 hour advice line and they said that cause she seems in no pain or discomfort and there was no bloody that i should just call my vets tomorrw and talk to them on the phone. They might say it will be fone and will have to sort itself out on its own or she might need to be seen. Thank you for all ur help and i will let you know how she gets on.

You just ring your normal vet number, there will be an answerphone with the out of hours number to ring.  Asking advice over the phone will be  free, they will know whether she needs to be seen tonight or whether she can wait until the morning.

Hope she's OK  :hug:

I just posted on your thread in CC but pleased you cam in here.

Ring emergency vet and ask if it can wait until tomorrow. Your cat may have been bitten as well and that would need treatment before Monday.

Is you cat in pain in the mouth cos dont know how cats teeth are like cos know they are different to humans.

I suspect she may be in pain in which case you may need emergency vet tonight.

My cat came in about an hour ago after having a cat fight with a local cat. I managed to get her and have a look at her mouth as she was acting strange. I then noticed that one of her main canines at the front of her mouth has completely snapped off. Does anyone know what i should do. Should i take her to an emergancy vet or wait to see my normal vet monday or is it nothing to worry about?
