I'm sorry to hear Platinum is having these issues! Baby teeth are usually lost between 4-6 months of age so she may have just lost her baby teeth. However, some of the other things you're describing are concerning to me, especially in a kitten. These things could be a sign of many things including infection, gastrointestinal disease, or pain. I'd recommend taking Platinum to see a veterinarian as soon as possible so she can receive the necessary treatment. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach and I hope Platinum is feeling better soon!
