What age do kittens normally lose their "baby" teeth to make way for their adult ones to grow through?

3-6 months.

Thanks Jan.

Solo's k-9s were the last to go. I remember around 5 - 6 months old he had double k-9 little fangs for a while which was weird. But those babies fell right out!

We had no idea about baby teeth until one nite I saw the ol Rubester struggling with something on her mouth....upon closer inspection...something slightly bloody.....panic setting in, trying to determine if one of her claws was ripped out or if it was a tooth...ok, looks like a tooth....crap, did she BREAK a tooth?? Boyfriend jumps on internet, relief....! heehee

Thanks for all your advice!

The thought never even crossed my mind until the other day when my Mum asked if any of his baby teeth had fallen out yet!

I've not noticed any little teeth lying around, or any issues with his mouth, so I'm assuming none have fallen out as yet. He'll be 5 months old next week ... should I start to worry if his teeth don't fall out in the next month or so?!

A lot of those baby teeth might get swallowed... and then disposed off in the natural way LOL - that might be a reason why you haven't seen anything yet. Finding a baby tooth is like a good luck charm to me and very much cherished
