Hi everyone, I have a couple questions regarding my eight week old male, sable. We got him a couple weeks ago, and he's a great pet. He learned the litter box in no time, so we gave him free run of our bedroom (ferret proofed of course), and he continues to use his box 99.9% of the time. He loves to sleep in the bed with us, but sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night to chew our ears or lick our face (this is about the only time he gets the cage treatment :) He likes to bite, which brings me to my first question. When he is playing he will "bite", it's not realy a bite he doesn't apply any pressure it's just play. When I first got him he bit kind of hard but it only took a couple scoldings to stop that. Is it alright to let him "play bite" or should this be detoured as well? My main question is about his teeth. The other night we were playing and he, as always, was play biting; then one of his teeth fell out. He wasn't biting hard and it was on my hand so it surprised me a little. He didn't even seem to notice and there was no blood or anything. I haven't read anything about them losing teeth or having baby teeth. We had just stoped watering his food (science diet cat growth) 2-3 days earlier, and it seemed pretty crunchy <to him, I didn't try it:> Could this be the cause? And, if so, should we keep wetting his food for a while? BTW it was the tooth right behind the top,left incisor<SP?> and the same tooth on the other side appears to be just coming in. Thanks in advance for any replies. JOHN CHRISTI AND ROSCOE [Posted in FML issue 1371]
