At 4.5 months old Jasmine has already started loosing baby teeth and getting adult teeth. It starts with their tiny incisors around three and a half or 4 months, and finishes with the four canine teeth at around 6 months. Cats usually just swallow them, but occasionally you might find a tooth on the floor. Enjoy your kitty and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!

    Yes they do! In kittens, the entire teething process is relatively rapid. Teething begins in kittens at about 3½ to 4 months of age, when the primary incisors begin to be replaced by permanent incisors. By the time the average kitten reaches 6- 7 months of age, all 30 adult teeth will have erupted.
