Teeth grinding when eating wet food
Hi all,
I need a bit of advice!
Baby Benji is 12 weeks old, and today he has started grinding his teeth while he is eating wet food. We were at the vets with him yesterday to get something to settle his "moving-house-bottom" and the vet did a check of his teeth etc and said both his teeth and gums looked good.
Could it be an early sign of teething or has anybody had an experience with this being something else? Today he is a bit more clingy and whiny too and keeps asking for my attention and only settles if I pick him up.

Of my three only Bertie did this. He seems to have stopped now. I thought it might have ben teething too. Very loud and only on wet food.

It's a horrific noise, it makes my own teeth ache! He seems happy and playful just wants a bit more mummy attention.

Well this morning he was chewing on my fingers and anything metal. so I gave him a straw and he vhewed that for the rest of the morning and was mangled by the time I left for work. He has also gone off eating his dry food but wolfs down his wet so it does seem like he is teething! Am hoping it goes fairly smoothly for him, I've never experienced a kitten start teething at this young!
