Hey guys! Thank you all SO much for the support. Hearing your stories of your cats being happier and living comfortable lives after extractions are very encouraging as well! We have received so much love from you all and it means the world. For the few people who don’t agree with our decision for Penny, please understand that this decision was not taken lightly. Penny’s bio brother, who was adopted by family, needed a full mouth extraction due to stomatitis when he was young. He went from struggling to being a very happy cat. Penny has been struggling with genetically bad teeth and with good food and regular vet care, her teeth continue to get worse. There was so much swelling this time around her bones when the X-rays were done, instead of putting her through another few extractions just for her to still be in pain and go through it again next year, that seems cruel. We wanted to take that pain away, we’ve been fighting for her dental health for a long time. I’m showing a small blip of our journey here, as we usually make fun skits and don’t vlog our lives or speak about personal things often. In the end, we got 3 different opinions from vets on Penny’s teeth and made the best decision that we could for her. It’s taken time. Please read the stories people are commenting and look into stomatitis and resorption in cats to further understand Penny’s pain and what is is for a cat to live with no teeth. ❤️
Stomatitis is actually pretty common and full extractions are also common. Cats do really well though. It was the correct decision, as you said, it isn't fair to keep doing this year after year when it can be taken care of once. Take care and ignore the nay sayers ♥
You guys definitely made the right decision, you saved Pennys life. My cat Tippi was born with Novio virus, it was passed from the mother and sure enough her siblings that were adopted out all had it too, we had to contact the place where she was adopted to let other people know who adopted her siblings. Fortunately they are all healthy and good, but with animals they’re very prone to disease, infections, and genetic abnormality. You just never know. But I’m glad Penny is ok.
You absolutely make the right decision for Penny🙏 you guys are an awesome family who are so thoughtful and loving. I'm praying for a quick recovery for sweet Penny. I know this hasn't been an easy time for you guys and I hope you all get some rest too❤️🌺🙏
Sometimes I forget I’m watching animals that don’t actually talk. Your editing is flawless and I hang on every word. So glad everything turned out well for all the fur babies!
I'm a huge fan of Penny and so happy to hear that she's doing well. I just couldn't watch this video until today. I even cry when the ASPCA commercial comes on because my heart breaks to think that anyone could mistreat an animal because all they want is love. I am sure they trust and love those who leave them alone, outside in the elements or unfed. I am crying as I wrte this because my husband and I want a kitten or cat so badly but are no longer able to care for an animal as we are are both handicapped. The last of our four cats passed away in 2018 at 19 years of age. God bless you, Aymie and family for giving your fur babies a happy, healthy and loving home. I look forward to watching Penny and the others for a long time 🙏🐾❤️
As a Veterinary Dental Specialist who is a huge fan of Penny, I want to thank you for advocating for your pets! It sounds like your vet is top notch and kudos to you for seeing a Dentist, that’s exactly what we are here for. Im sure she is already feeling better!
My old girl has bad teeth broken off at the bases, the vet gave her an antibiotic for her red gums and said not to worry about it unless she got signs of infection.
I lost it when Lilly was insanely screaming that it was not Penny. Thank you for the great information and reassurance to take your animals problem seriously. I love your program!!
@@rollingwiththepunches1988I’m 100% sure he knew you wanted him to get well more than anything in the world. He felt your love and that’s what matters. So sorry you lost your friend.
@Just Peachy 😢So sorry for your loss🥺💔It really hurts to loose a pet, I know! My Cat Lux died 7/11/22, it sux 😢14 years he's been Mama's baby boy so co dependent (was a rescue). It takes time. People say, "Get another Cat?".....Lol honestly I was so heartbroken I just couldn't (yet). I'd feel like he'd be jealous lol lol lol. Maybe in time I'll get another. *Important to get another Cat that may have a bad "Fate", as opposed to a kitten, the Vet thinks Lux was 2when I got him from Dog Pound/ Cat Shelterr😢!!!*
I’m so glad for Gracie that she’s being brought up in such a creative and empathetic family. What she’s learning about animals will help her in all areas of her life. She also happens to have excellent voiceover skills! Glad to see the patients are all healing well. Loved the snow on the cactus!
Haha, I suppose I’m Naive. I really was thinking she used a program or something to change her own voice until I heard Gracie speak in this one. I’m new to this family but I immediately realized it was her daughters voice as Penny as soon as I heard her; and I agree. She certainly does have amazing voice over skills!
Yes, what a talented girl. I noticed how naturally she called her “Mom,” as Penny in this video. When I was a kid, that was my mom’s name, if you asked me! Love and well wishes to Penny and her family.
I had to have the teeth pulled from my 13 year old, 14 pound calico cat Emma in August of 2022. She still prefers the dry kibble over wet food. She just swallows the kibble whole! Hello from Phoenix Arizona❗🔥
Don't feel bad - I'm a 63 y/o girl & I was crying too! And I felt so sorry for Aymie bcoz I know how stressful & scary it is to have to go thru that with your pets. I have 7 cats & I seriously would rather have major surgery than take one of my cats to the vet for even a simple procedure. But I'm so glad she waited til it was all over before she posted this! I would have been super worried! 💜
I'm filled with dread. I have to gave extractions too but I'm not a cute kitty I'm hooman and I don't wanna go!!! 😭 I'm glad Penny pulled through. She's a trooper. 🥰🥰🥰
She’ll be ok, I have a senior cat that lost all her teeth when I adopted her at 10. Now she’s 17 and eats pate but that’s her preference. Then 2 dogs, one 11 with no teeth and another 14 with no teeth. She’ll be ok! But I’ll be praying for you guys anyway!! 😘❣️
When I was choosing my cat at the shelter, I chose the one that ran up to me with the loudest purr. She was so friendly and affectionate. Soon after, I took her to the vet and found out that 4 of her teeth were broken off at the root and those teeth and 3 more had to be extracted. A few days after surgery, she was pain free for the first time in probably a very long time. I continue to be amazed at how loving and affectionate she was at the shelter, despite being in extreme pain. To make matters worse, the shelter did not have any soft food, only big hard pellets. They wrote on her chart that she didn't have much of an appetite, but in reality, it was physically impossible for her to eat the big pellets. I now give her broths and small pellets that she swallows without chewing. She has been purring with me non-stop for 3 years now.
Thank you. People dump little cats at my front gate and I hate everyone who drives by for it. I know at least one of them, I don't know who, has done this terrible thing. I have nine now, it is hard to take care of all of them but I do and stay in trouble with my wife for it.
Their is a company that makes soft pellets for cats. I can't remember which one off hand but I am sure if you look it up you will be able to find it. ,🙂😺🐾
@@debbiegordon3449Hi deb! My baby is getting extractions soon and i’m looking into his diet for post surgery? did you find out the name of those small pellets?
I'm so happy that everything worked out for Penny. We sadly had a couple of senior cats that had the same problem and we had to make a difficult decision because removing their teeth didn't work. They still had severe pain and couldn't eat. It's awesome that you have many more years to love your fur baby, keep enjoying every moment.❤
I am such a wimp. I have 8 very distinct cat babies and one with bad teeth sitting upon my lap while I cried. I feel like I know Penny, well all of your babies. They are precious. Can I say that you are an EXCELLENT pet Mom!!❤ I am grateful to you for sharing this. I feel less afraid for my little girl Lovey. She's a rescue who had a horrific life from what we know and I have spent a lot of time letting her know she's safe for always. My other cats hiss at each other when they go to the vet too!! One hides under furniture until the strangers leave??? ( they dont)😅 I love you guys. I watched this video twice and I want my granddaughters to watch tomorrow. . I hope it helps.. vet bills are really something. . I apologize that as a ss recipient I can't send cash. Because I most definitely would!! So I will get some views and do what I can. Anything for the sweet family I love so much❤ Get well soon Penny
Awww.... Poor Lovey! But now she has you & a future full of love! I have 7 cats, all rescues with different pasts - some worse than others - and I have rescued many cats & dogs & found them loving homes - so I am just happy we were able to help so many animals over the years. We never had much money to give, but worked within organizations where different members helped in different ways. We took them in bcoz we have the room, inside & out - and found them homes, while others had no room but were blessed with the ability to buy the food & pay the medical bills. That was a long time ago, and now we have no financial help, but when God sends me an animal in need I do the right thing. And it's hard to find a home for a cat around here, so I end up falling in love with them & keeping them. Wish I was rich so I could help more animals! 💜 Also, we have 2 YT accounts in my household + my hubby's phone (no YT acct tho) so we are watching, rewatching, liking & sharing!
I cannot believe after a full mouth extraction, Penny ate & drank 2hrs after!! Amazing! Our prayers worked!! Thank You, Lord! Love Gracie's muffled voice as Penny nuzzled in Mama's elbow & while eating! Excellently clever!
One of my cats is having all of her teeth removed next week. This video just appeared in my feed! I am so anxious for my kitty. We're driving 4 hours, spending the night in a hotel, she's having surgery the following morning and spending the night at the hospital. We head home the following day. Thank you so much for this video and to the people who left reassuring comments.
My cat had a full mouth extraction in December. Gingivostomatitis. After a ton of visits to other Vets, my choice, I ended up going to South Paws in Louisiana. I got there early in the morning and spent the night in a hotel as well. She came out with a fentanyl patch and she has prophylactic doxycycline now. It's amazing how she still prefers the hard kibble to the soft stuff!
@@MAINECOONLADY Thank you. We drive on Monday, echo & surgery on Tuesday, home on Wednesday. Her breeder gave her to me because she has PKD. That's why we want an anesthesiologist involved. She doesn't have the cardiomyopathy gene but the oral surgeon still wants an echo. 🐈
My cat Emma was feral & abused when I got her at 3 years old. She is now 13, but to travel I had to get a small dog cage. It is big enough she can't fight me to go in. I wish I had thought of that sooner. The hard part is trying to get it in the backseat of my sports car! Oh Well❕❕ Hello from Phoenix Arizona❕🔥
@@JFH-te4lu yeah I have a few of those too but I also have top loaders and it just snaps open with two fingers real quick. Also quick and easy to close it. For me they are more convenient.
Poor Penny baby! I know the waiting & worrying was rough on you, Aymie, been there. Amazing you could still find the humor. ❤️ Sending hugs to all of your family & hoping Ms Penny heals well & quickly.
One of our cats we adopted from a local animal shelter ended up needing to get 4 teeth extracted which the shelter didn't say anything/do anything about it. And when we got it done for him, the vet said we basically made his life 100x better. Which was awesome to hear. 😊
Everybody, we all need to thank Gracie for her beautiful voice for playing Penny. Love you to Gracie! All your pets are adorable. I hope Lily doesn’t get too jealous over Penny. She is a sweetheart to.
As a vet it's refreshing to see owners take such wonderful care of their pets. Penny will feel so much better once she has recovered from surgery. Hoping for quick healing for all of your pets!
@@nancydavis4618 They have no problem eating. My cat removed all his teeth. He ate mostly special wet/soft food for cats with diabetes but if i gave him pellets he had no problem eating them :)
Her little face,she was so brave in the vets ... How odd that i didnt know about you at this time,yet made me cry,remembering taking my dear cats for their teeth to be extracted. Now I'm not able to have any more cats,so enjoy watching,perfect penny.xxx❤❤
I teared up over Penny having to through this surgery. The other day I watched a video about how difficult tooth extractions can be on cats! She was in good hands and is handling everything so well! Her family takes such good care of her!
You have no idea how much you've helped cat parents learn about stomatitis. It happens; I've been there. You've shown what to expect, how to care for the cat and how to prepare emotionally and financially. Fur babies go through things better than we do. But your love and thoughtful sharing helps everyone.❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼🐱🐾
I can REALLY appreciate what you went through with Penny. And you are blessed with the caliber of pet care down there. My little boy Bobby didn't do so well. We're in Alaska and it truly is the last frontier. After 3 trips to 3 different towns Bobby could not be helped. He had to fall asleep on my lap for the very last time. There's a hole in our home as big as our state. I'm so glad that Penny got the help she needed.
I am a cat lover all my life and I teared up when the video got to the point that I realized, yes, Penny was going to need a full extraction. She is a dear, sweet fur baby, and I am so glad it looks like she has pulled through this, but I can see the stress you were feeling too and I hope you too are OK now. All my cats are gone now, my last was a very sweet guy who looked exactly like Penny, and also talked a lot (but in cat language, not English) who left us a couple of years ago at 19 y.o. Now I have got to the point where I am thinking about adopting and have my eye on three siblings (grey striped tabbies like Penny) at one of the local private shelters near where I live. I have really come to know and love Penny and enjoy your family and all your babies and of course Gracie too. You put a lot of work into your videos and they are greatly appreciated and YOUR sweetness shows through too. I have read many of the comments as of this first day this video was posted, and echo all the wonderful sentiments your viewers have written, truly some wonderful thoughts are going your way. Best wishes from SE Florida.
I hope you can bring your new fur babies home! You seem like a sweet person & I'm sure you will take good care of them. I've always found tabbies to be the hardiest, best hunting cats! Best Wishes, also from SE FL.
Our cat Lily had full extractions last October. She became a much happier and healthier cat without all the infected teeth. She was no longer in pain. Best of everything to you and your family and Penny. ❤️ PS our miniature Schnauzer's name is Penny.
Come over your neighbor and we both know each other and we have honestly been talking about you for a long time and how you been missing your cats honestly we all know
Penny is so precious! Thank you to Mummy and Daddy for taking care of her and loving her and to her sister and other fur siblings for loving on her too❤❤💙❤❤
I cried when it was revealed how Penny had ALL her teeth extracted ! But, I imagine she's in much better spirits now that she doesn't have the other problems anymore. Such a sweet kitty, she is !!! TYSM for sharing this time with us all. Love your channel bunches and am praying for you all. 😻❣🙏
BIG hugs to everyone! One of the worst aspects of being a pet owner is not being able to explain circumstances like this. It breaks my heart every time.
Yes I hate that we can’t actually communicate why we have to do these things with them🥺 Penny has been so loving since getting home, I’m hoping she understands we want to help her pain go away ❤️
@@aymieandfamily Last year, I found out that my ten-year-old Siamese cat, Jasper, had stomatitis, an oral inflammation. The vet recommended that I go to a specialist who said the best thing to do would be to remove all of his teeth because of the infection. I could tell it was pretty bad because it was on the outside of his lips as well as affecting his gums. He had to be persuaded to eat and he didn't want to play either. when I went to the specialist, he recommended pulling all of Jasper's teeth. I hated doing it but I also didn't want to see him in pain anymore. After the surgery, once his mouth had healed, he seems like a new cat. He eats well and plays and flies around the house with the other two cats. I definitely don't regret having this procedure done. He is enjoying life again! I hope that Penny will come through the surgery quickly and that her mouth will soon feel better. since I'm writing this a couple of weeks after it was posted, I'm assuming that she's doing well already! Love you Penny and family!❤❤❤
I have a male Tabby named Steve. He's a doppelganger of Penny's. He had a full extraction about 3 years ago due to his stomatitis. It was the BEST decision for his health. He's been thriving since then and will be 9 this August. He eats kibble with no prob. As you know, cats are amazingly resilient. It'll take some adjustment but mostly on your part. Penny will adapt before you know it! Much love to you all. Thanks for being such a good friend to animals.
@@humble72 Steve eats kibble and Tuna and Pate. We try to give him a "balance." The cartilage in their gums becomes hard enough to use to chew somehow. I hope your cat is doing well.
Thank you so much for this video. My siamese boy asher is going in for extractions today and I was super anxious for him. After seeing this I'm feeling a lot better. Send prayers and good vibes please!
I love seeing people who clearly love their animals. Seeing how Penny reacts to you is just as sweet, she loves you so much and you can just tell that you love her so much.
@@aymieandfamily How old is Penny? Just asking for her welfare, does she weigh more than she should? It would stress her feet. Thanks for sharing such heart warming videos. 🌹
I have come to love Penny as my own kitty! You and your family give me a lot of joy with your videos! I've been a cat mom for most of my life and can say you are a great example of someone who loves and researches to find the best possible care for Penny! So glad to see such wonderful support from the community. Praying for you and your sweet family and a quick recovery for Penny!
Me too! I'm being told I can't have a cat. A 52 yr old woman being told she can't have a cat....oh well, I digress. I feel like she's a part of my family...in fact I feel like they are all a part of my family.
Few months ago I noticed one of my cat has bad breath - her gums were really red and it was so weird because she acted completely normal and was eating well - out vet recommended going to veterinary Dentist to consult her case as nothing was really helping and it turned out she's going go have all her teeth extracted at the end of this month, she's only 3 years old. Thank you for this video! It really calmed me down.
Aymie, you and your family are so creative and cool. I love Penny's robust appetite! It's a very good sign. This particular video is very instructive showing the dental problems that cats can have. From what I have seen, and I've had many cats, this full tooth extraction is necessary for more cats than I had realized. And no, vets don't know the "root" cause. Penny videos are my favorite and they always leave me with great sense of well-being as well as tickling my funny bone.
It's so hard to watch how Aymie is so scared for Penny, but she is just the bravest cat I have ever seen! I was also worried about anestesia and how she would feel after the surgery and how she would adjusts to her new food. Her family made a good decision to finally get rid of pain and avoid further surgeries. Penny is going to be just fine and soon will forget about these difficult days. 🙏😼 Lily's dramatic performance at 30:28 was just HILARIOUS😆 Love from Belarus! ❤️
Sad at times I wanted to cry. Penny was a courageous furry baby but Lily has no empathy whatsoever. Thanks for all the family to be so sweet at all times. 💕 PS: having a tooth out in a few days but no one to pacify me 😢
Need to add that humans are born w/o teeth, then they grow, then we loose them, they grow again, then spend $$$$ ++++ whatever happens until we go ... poor 🐈 or other animals go thru more or less same thing. 😥
My kitty just died after 11 years of kidney failure. I never realized how much it breaks your heart. Watching Penny makes me smile ever though I don't want to. I'm so glad Penny has a loving family and will be OK. Good job
Sorry for the loss of your feline companion. I know how hard that is. When you are ready to share your ♥️ with another I hope you'll rush down to shelter & get 1...or even 2. They will love you & your 1st kitty would not mind at all cuz' you still & always will love that 1 too. Love doesn't die!
@@teresabyrne855 may I ask.. how do you deal with the guilt of thinking you failed your kitty. I tried everything and it still wasn't good enough. I miss her so much.
Aymie, it is so wonderful how much you, your husband, and beautiful Gracie love and care for these animals. I wish there were more people in this world like you.
Penny and the gang and you and your family were my solace and refuge after my husband passed away summer of 2022. Your escspades and humor gave me respite from sadness. After every video I came away refreshed and with some joy and healing. Thank you so much!!! I'm going to be in your area late April and hope to run across you to thank you in person! Love, Shari
It's lovely how much you love Penny and are always there for her. She's a very blessed cat! Just one small tip: cats get very stressed in moving cars - being able to see things flying by is not in their understanding. I always put something over the cage like a small blanket, so the cat can't see so much - it calms them.
@@maggielarson5472 I didn't know that there was some kind of a disease that would make a cat lose all of their teeth. That was very upsetting to me. My cat had trouble with a couple of his teeth but only had to get a couple of teeth removed. I lost my cat back in 2005 when he passed away from heart problems. He was my first cat. I haven't had another one since even though I really want one. I can't afford to have one. So I've adopted Penny and I just got super upset watching the video. I just hope that she recovers well.
Penny & the pups were all so brave & you parents did so well with a crazy amount of fur baby care crammed into a short period of time. Let's hope for a nice break from all that extra stress. Hang in there Penny. You'll be eating ham again soon!🥰
Back in April our daughter’s cat Finn had a full mouth extraction at a dental specialist due to stomatitis and tooth resorption. Finn’s recovery went so well and it is such a comfort knowing that he is no longer suffering with a painful mouth. Finn is a very happy cat now.
Lily was pretty brave, even when suspicious and confused. No swatting: Impressive! When the tension dies down and two cats once again eat together peacefully, it is such a relief.
😂im not even sure how i found you but am so thankful i did.My hubby of 35 yrs passed in jan 2019. I found you all shortly after. You were the only bright spot in my life. Thanks to Penny and Lily i got 2 ɓabies zoey ( who looks just like Penny) and her brother Zeus. They are the most incredible fur babies ever. Thank you for sharing your family with us. You pulled me back from a very dark place. My babies just celebrated their 4th bday last month
I'm really sorry for your loss. There are many examples of how adopted furbabies are the ones who rescued and saved their hoomans. Not the other way around. I'm glad you have your babies with you. Please give them extra cuddles for me 😊
Poor sweet little Penny! I've had many oral surgeries myself, so I know how scary it must have been for her. And how unpleasant the recovery can be. But it's so much easier when those who really love you are taking good care of you. 💖
Oh my friend, you did a good job. My tiny chihuahua had 15 teeth pulled out during dental cleaning, which made me cry, but she felt better afterward. Thanks for always making me smile, penny girl ❤
Oh Aymie. I was crying so hard. Penny came through it with flying colors. She is a real champ and I know she's going to feel so much better. Jimmy and Josie did awesome too. Prayers for a quick and complete recovery for all. Love you all.
This is so well done, it is like a short docudrama. I had a medical emergency with my cat Autumn last summer. Her sister, Sophie, who is usually a sweetheart, acted like she was possessed when Autumn came home and smelled different. Sophie howled, spit, slapped. I had to keep them separated for a couple of days.
This always happens when I take one or the other to the vet or grooming. They’re brother and sister and it’s a couple of days before they act normal. Is it because of the smell? I thought only my cats acted that way.
I am so in love with Penny and your whole family! It is so uplifting to see how caring and thoughtful you are for your pets and your entire family. The pups are too cute, too! I'm so glad all went well. ❤
OK now after watching this fabulous video a few times, I have to say how marvelous it was to see the interaction of all the kids with our Penny girl. Lily, true to her personality, thinking she has a great mystery figured out, was just delightful.
The shot near the end when Gracie is petting Penny made me tear up. My 15 year old cats have both lost teeth. You are a great pet family, we wish you the best.
She will do just fine. She received excellent Veterinary care and is receiving excellent care at home with tons of love. Once the mouth has healed, cats with no teeth can even eat dry food! Good job brave Penny!😽😻
can confirm, my cat had all her teeth pulled before I adopted her last year. I give her both dry & wet food every day and she's happy with all of it. in fact she is quite plump 😳
@@aymieandfamily That makes sense. Cats are carnivores and don't have the vertical tooth surface to chew food. They can crack kibble a bit, but for the most part they just swallow their dry foods whole.♥ P.S. I love how you included Lily's response to Penny's return; it can be really tough when your best friend comes home smelling wrong.
Penny’s comments are priceless! I am so glad her surgery went well. (I am a new fan). Hey Penny you are awesome and I am from the Valley! Have a great day!
So glad to see Penny is doing well. This really hit home for this cat lover. I’ve experienced full mouth extraction with 2 rescued cats recently. I was actually so relieved knowing they were no longer in pain. Both did very well with no teeth, it was amazing to see how they immediately adapted. Penny is so lucky to have people care for her and go ahead with that surgery. Stomatitis is very serious and painful condition for cats. Oftentimes overlooked as Aymie says cats hide pain well. Thank you for sharing the video. If it helps anyone out there recognize this in their cat, how great that would be. Don’t be afraid of extraction - they do quite well. And will end up saving them a life of pain. Love to Penny and the lovely funny family !!!
Aymie I have been introduced to Penny just about 5 months ago and she is the Delight of our life. We all laugh and watch penny and your show thank you so much for sharing your life and your family with all of us. I have a cat named Bailey and a cat named Winston.
I love Penny so this was so emotional for me. Great work Gracie on the change in voice and change in the whisker licking sounds with her teeth out. Lily's concern was so loving. Thank you Amy. This show gets me through blue moments.
My sister's cat had all his teeth extracted a few years ago. He's a happy, healthy boy. He has no problem eating both wet and dry food. And treats! I hope Penny has a speedy recovery.
It is so hard because they can’t tell you how the reel or what hurts. Great video. You are very talented in matching penny’s mouth movements to words. I pray with my three fur babies every day.
I'm so sorry Penny had to go through all of this. It looks like she's healing and with your love and attention, she will be completely well in no time! Love your videos!
Penny...I am pretty sure that my sweet little Paisley will be having all her teeth extracted soon as well. I had her watch your video and she said...."If Penny can do it....then so can I. " Thank you for helping us with the fear of getting tooth surgery ! You did amazing !! Love you ! ❤️
This film hit me in the heart . Your love, care and awareness for Penny, plus Lily's funny comments, have me laughing and crying at once.( I had a tuxedo cat , much like Lily in personality .) Thank you for being such a great family and an example of love. We need more of you in this world, Aymie's family.xxoo
My heart hurts for Penny. When you sang you are my sunshine I started crying as I used to sing that to my Cookie. Sending prayers for a speedy recovery🙏
❤❤❤ I love how much these for babies are taken care of, and loved! Medical procedures, and never easy, but you’re giving them all the love that they could ever need🎉❤❤❤
No worries, Penny! ❤️ You'll do just fine without your teeth. I've had several cats throughout the years that had to remove all their teeth due to dental diseases. In fact I have one cat that just recently lost his four remaining teeth due to stomatitis and he feels so much better without them. Since you don't have to hunt and catch your daily food, you're doing perfectly fine even without all teeth. The most important thing is to not be in constant pain and if removing teeth can accomplish that, so be it. You're just as cute without them and lots of cats without any teeth at all even continue wanting to eat dry food as well as wet food. So no worries, Penny! ❤️ Your family's got your back! Always and forever. Keanu (my toothless cat) sends you the nicest boop and cuddle and wishes you smooth recovery. 🐱 He made it and you will too! ❤️ 🤗 😘 I really love all the things you come up with... You are all soooo funny and a wonderful family! 😄👌
@@a1mi551 no offense, but why would you say that? U don’t just going around saying that someone’s cat is probably in pain. U comfort them and tell them that their cat isn’t in any pain and it will be ok.
Awww! I'm sorry Penny had to have her teeth removed, but I hope she will be better & stay healthy. So many of us love her & your whole family. You are brilliant to be able to create the videos! Give Penny a big get-well hug & 😘 kiss! P.S. How can we donate toward Penny's vet expenses?
No one could adore Penny, you and your family more than I. My 14 year old long hair ginger boy just had his teeth pulled. He is fine and eating too much again. Your daughter's voice just melts my heart.
I don't cry easily and I was shedding tears like crazy for Penny girl. Your videos give me so much joy and I'm praying for Penny's full recovery, looks like she's doing great! So happy to see 🤗
I can relate. My cat passed in April and seeing Penny is comforting. I was able to rescue another kitty who was being abused by his owner. He is only a year old and needs two teeth removed. I will say to you the same thing that my Vet said to me when my sweet Jaspurr passed away- Your cats knew they were loved, take comfort in that and I hope you also take comfort in the warm memories that their love imprinted on your heart. 🩷🐱

My Yorkie will be 15 years old in April and he had all but one tooth removed due to bad infection. He's doing so much better now. Sending love, hugs, and prayers for for Penny
Hey guys! Thank you all SO much for the support. Hearing your stories of your cats being happier and living comfortable lives after extractions are very encouraging as well! We have received so much love from you all and it means the world. For the few people who don’t agree with our decision for Penny, please understand that this decision was not taken lightly. Penny’s bio brother, who was adopted by family, needed a full mouth extraction due to stomatitis when he was young. He went from struggling to being a very happy cat. Penny has been struggling with genetically bad teeth and with good food and regular vet care, her teeth continue to get worse. There was so much swelling this time around her bones when the X-rays were done, instead of putting her through another few extractions just for her to still be in pain and go through it again next year, that seems cruel. We wanted to take that pain away, we’ve been fighting for her dental health for a long time. I’m showing a small blip of our journey here, as we usually make fun skits and don’t vlog our lives or speak about personal things often. In the end, we got 3 different opinions from vets on Penny’s teeth and made the best decision that we could for her. It’s taken time. Please read the stories people are commenting and look into stomatitis and resorption in cats to further understand Penny’s pain and what is is for a cat to live with no teeth. ❤️
Stomatitis is actually pretty common and full extractions are also common. Cats do really well though. It was the correct decision, as you said, it isn't fair to keep doing this year after year when it can be taken care of once. Take care and ignore the nay sayers ♥
You guys definitely made the right decision, you saved Pennys life. My cat Tippi was born with Novio virus, it was passed from the mother and sure enough her siblings that were adopted out all had it too, we had to contact the place where she was adopted to let other people know who adopted her siblings.
Fortunately they are all healthy and good, but with animals they’re very prone to disease, infections, and genetic abnormality. You just never know. But I’m glad Penny is ok.
You absolutely make the right decision for Penny🙏 you guys are an awesome family who are so thoughtful and loving. I'm praying for a quick recovery for sweet Penny. I know this hasn't been an easy time for you guys and I hope you all get some rest too❤️🌺🙏
I hope penny is okay how is she feeling she is a really sweet cat I hope she is okay
I am sure you did the right thing just seeing on your videos with Penny there is so much love.Thank you for sharing❤️❤️🧚🏾♀️
Sometimes I forget I’m watching animals that don’t actually talk. Your editing is flawless and I hang on every word. So glad everything turned out well for all the fur babies!
Same here 💛
You mean cats don't talk????
❤
I totally agree the editing is worthy of a Hollywood Oscar. I too love these great videos.
It’s hard to think Penny is a cat
This is the tough part of being a responsible pet parent. It was so lovely to see the amount of mushies all your babies get.
😢😢
I'm a huge fan of Penny and so happy to hear that she's doing well. I just couldn't watch this video until today. I even cry when the ASPCA commercial comes on because my heart breaks to think that anyone could mistreat an animal because all they want is love. I am sure they trust and love those who leave them alone, outside in the elements or unfed. I am crying as I wrte this because my husband and I want a kitten or cat so badly but are no longer able to care for an animal as we are are both handicapped. The last of our four cats passed away in 2018 at 19 years of age.
God bless you, Aymie and family for giving your fur babies a happy, healthy and loving home. I look forward to watching Penny and the others for a long time 🙏🐾❤️
As a Veterinary Dental Specialist who is a huge fan of Penny, I want to thank you for advocating for your pets! It sounds like your vet is top notch and kudos to you for seeing a Dentist, that’s exactly what we are here for. Im sure she is already feeling better!
Thank you for writing that comment. God bless you for being a vet dental specialist❣️✝️😇
How expensive can this surgery be? Just an average range.
❤
I wish I had Penny’s mommy! 💙💙💙💙
@@jennoor3105It’s a lot. It saves lives, but dentals are always very expensive.
Even a cleaning is at the conservative tune of 800 dollars.
Our old cat needed most of her teeth out as well. She did great! She even lived to be 21. So happy that Penny is back to her old self. ❤️
Amazing!
My old girl has bad teeth broken off at the bases, the vet gave her an antibiotic for her red gums and said not to worry about it unless she got signs of infection.
21? That's great!
@@jturtle5318 The most common form 3:14 gjklijjuhhyyuhuhhyuuuuiiiuuuiuuuuiiuuu
21 means happiness and lots of loving. Good job mom and dad. ❤
The fact that she has such a good appetite after surgery is proof she feels better.
I lost it when Lilly was insanely screaming that it was not Penny.
Thank you for the great information and reassurance to take your animals problem seriously. I love your program!!
"I am GOING to keep you healthy" is the most mom thing ever said lmao love it
@Just Peachy So sorry for you 😭.
Your ANGEL is now playing
in the kingdom of God ♡.
RIP 🌹 beautiful soul ....
@@rollingwiththepunches1988I’m 100% sure he knew you wanted him to get well more than anything in the world. He felt your love and that’s what matters. So sorry you lost your friend.
@Just Peachy 😢So sorry for your loss🥺💔It really hurts to loose a pet, I know! My Cat Lux died 7/11/22, it sux 😢14 years he's been Mama's baby boy so co dependent (was a rescue). It takes time. People say, "Get another Cat?".....Lol honestly I was so heartbroken I just couldn't (yet). I'd feel like he'd be jealous lol lol lol. Maybe in time I'll get another. *Important to get another Cat that may have a bad "Fate", as opposed to a kitten, the Vet thinks Lux was 2when I got him from Dog Pound/ Cat Shelterr😢!!!*
I’m so glad for Gracie that she’s being brought up in such a creative and empathetic family. What she’s learning about animals will help her in all areas of her life. She also happens to have excellent voiceover skills! Glad to see the patients are all healing well. Loved the snow on the cactus!
Haha, I suppose I’m Naive. I really was thinking she used a program or something to change her own voice until I heard Gracie speak in this one. I’m new to this family but I immediately realized it was her daughters voice as Penny as soon as I heard her; and I agree. She certainly does have amazing voice over skills!
Yes, what a talented girl. I noticed how naturally she called her “Mom,” as Penny in this video. When I was a kid, that was my mom’s name, if you asked me! Love and well wishes to Penny and her family.
Oh man, what a tough week for you all! Glad to hear everyone is healing. ❤️
I can't get past Penny's voice coming out of Gracie LOL!! Love them!!!!
I'm a 60 year old man and I was shedding tears for Penny having her teeth out.
I had to have the teeth pulled from my 13 year old, 14 pound calico cat Emma in August of 2022. She still prefers the dry kibble over wet food. She just swallows the kibble whole!
Hello from Phoenix Arizona❗🔥
Me too!!! I have fallen in love with this girl!!!
Don't feel bad - I'm a 63 y/o girl & I was crying too! And I felt so sorry for Aymie bcoz I know how stressful & scary it is to have to go thru that with your pets. I have 7 cats & I seriously would rather have major surgery than take one of my cats to the vet for even a simple procedure. But I'm so glad she waited til it was all over before she posted this! I would have been super worried! 💜
I'm filled with dread. I have to gave extractions too but I'm not a cute kitty I'm hooman and I don't wanna go!!! 😭
I'm glad Penny pulled through. She's a trooper. 🥰🥰🥰
@@mary-janereallynotsarah684 yes she is!!
She’ll be ok, I have a senior cat that lost all her teeth when I adopted her at 10. Now she’s 17 and eats pate but that’s her preference. Then 2 dogs, one 11 with no teeth and another 14 with no teeth. She’ll be ok! But I’ll be praying for you guys anyway!! 😘❣️
When I was choosing my cat at the shelter, I chose the one that ran up to me with the loudest purr. She was so friendly and affectionate. Soon after, I took her to the vet and found out that 4 of her teeth were broken off at the root and those teeth and 3 more had to be extracted. A few days after surgery, she was pain free for the first time in probably a very long time. I continue to be amazed at how loving and affectionate she was at the shelter, despite being in extreme pain. To make matters worse, the shelter did not have any soft food, only big hard pellets. They wrote on her chart that she didn't have much of an appetite, but in reality, it was physically impossible for her to eat the big pellets. I now give her broths and small pellets that she swallows without chewing. She has been purring with me non-stop for 3 years now.
Thank you. People dump little cats at my front gate and I hate everyone who drives by for it. I know at least one of them, I don't know who, has done this terrible thing. I have nine now, it is hard to take care of all of them but I do and stay in trouble with my wife for it.
Their is a company that makes soft pellets for cats. I can't remember which one off hand but I am sure if you look it up you will be able to find it. ,🙂😺🐾
Why not wet food? I am sure you haveyour reasons. Just a thought.
@@debbiegordon3449Hi deb! My baby is getting extractions soon and i’m looking into his diet for post surgery? did you find out the name of those small pellets?
Bless you for your love and compassion for your very special puss.
I'm so happy that everything worked out for Penny.
We sadly had a couple of senior cats that had the same problem and we had to make a difficult decision because removing their teeth didn't work. They still had severe pain and couldn't eat.
It's awesome that you have many more years to love your fur baby, keep enjoying every moment.❤
I am such a wimp. I have 8 very distinct cat babies and one with bad teeth sitting upon my lap while I cried.
I feel like I know Penny, well all of your babies. They are precious.
Can I say that you are an EXCELLENT pet Mom!!❤
I am grateful to you for sharing this. I feel less afraid for my little girl Lovey. She's a rescue who had a horrific life from what we know and I have spent a lot of time letting her know she's safe for always. My other cats hiss at each other when they go to the vet too!! One hides under furniture until the strangers leave??? ( they dont)😅
I love you guys. I watched this video twice and I want my granddaughters to watch tomorrow. . I hope it helps.. vet bills are really something. . I apologize that as a ss recipient I can't send cash. Because I most definitely would!!
So I will get some views and do what I can.
Anything for the sweet family I love so much❤
Get well soon Penny
Lovey is lucky to have found her loving home. We can't erase their past, but we can fill their today and tomorrows with love and comfort.
Awww.... Poor Lovey! But now she has you & a future full of love! I have 7 cats, all rescues with different pasts - some worse than others - and I have rescued many cats & dogs & found them loving homes - so I am just happy we were able to help so many animals over the years. We never had much money to give, but worked within organizations where different members helped in different ways. We took them in bcoz we have the room, inside & out - and found them homes, while others had no room but were blessed with the ability to buy the food & pay the medical bills. That was a long time ago, and now we have no financial help, but when God sends me an animal in need I do the right thing. And it's hard to find a home for a cat around here, so I end up falling in love with them & keeping them. Wish I was rich so I could help more animals! 💜 Also, we have 2 YT accounts in my household + my hubby's phone (no YT acct tho) so we are watching, rewatching, liking & sharing!
I cannot believe after a full mouth extraction, Penny ate & drank 2hrs after!! Amazing! Our prayers worked!! Thank You, Lord! Love Gracie's muffled voice as Penny nuzzled in Mama's elbow & while eating! Excellently clever!
One of my cats is having all of her teeth removed next week. This video just appeared in my feed! I am so anxious for my kitty. We're driving 4 hours, spending the night in a hotel, she's having surgery the following morning and spending the night at the hospital. We head home the following day. Thank you so much for this video and to the people who left reassuring comments.
My cat had a full mouth extraction in December. Gingivostomatitis. After a ton of visits to other Vets, my choice, I ended up going to South Paws in Louisiana. I got there early in the morning and spent the night in a hotel as well. She came out with a fentanyl patch and she has prophylactic doxycycline now. It's amazing how she still prefers the hard kibble to the soft stuff!
Prayers for your sweet kitty. I'm sure she'll be fine ❤God bless ❤
Did your Maine Coon have her surgery? If yes, how is she doing? Praying for her & Penny!! Kisses &
Hugs, Michele,

I hope all goes well, good luck to you and your cat, I'm sure everything will go smoothly 😊
@@MAINECOONLADY Thank you. We drive on Monday, echo & surgery on Tuesday, home on Wednesday. Her breeder gave her to me because she has PKD. That's why we want an anesthesiologist involved. She doesn't have the cardiomyopathy gene but the oral surgeon still wants an echo. 🐈
Penny and all your other pets are blessed to have such caring owners. We can feel the love.
Penny needs a top loading carrier so mom can just set her in there. Prayers for fast healing! Love you Penny! ❤🐾💙
My cat Emma was feral & abused when I got her at 3 years old. She is now 13, but to travel I had to get a small dog cage. It is big enough she can't fight me to go in. I wish I had thought of that sooner. The hard part is trying to get it in the backseat of my sports car! Oh Well❕❕
Hello from Phoenix Arizona❕🔥
There are latches on the side that she can unlatch and take the top off. I won't tell you how long it took for me to figure it out....
@@JFH-te4lu yeah I have a few of those too but I also have top loaders and it just snaps open with two fingers real quick. Also quick and easy to close it. For me they are more convenient.
I have a top carrier doesn't matter they know where their gonging.
Going to buy one of those! This one we’ve had so long haha
I absolutely love Penny, she is the sweetest.. Give her lots of hugs and kisses for being a good girl. My prayers are with Penny. 🙏💞
Poor Penny baby! I know the waiting & worrying was rough on you, Aymie, been there. Amazing you could still find the humor. ❤️ Sending hugs to all of your family & hoping Ms Penny heals well & quickly.
I love Penny's voice. Fits her perfectly.
Does penny talk for real or is it someone elses voice
@@SweetStrawberrybracletsAymie’s daughter Gracie voices Penny
One of our cats we adopted from a local animal shelter ended up needing to get 4 teeth extracted which the shelter didn't say anything/do anything about it. And when we got it done for him, the vet said we basically made his life 100x better. Which was awesome to hear. 😊
Sounds like my story. So sad they dont do anything about it. Happy you did!
@@Liortj same.! 😊
My cat had four pulled as well. He’s been doing great and worth the price.
Would you mind giving the range for surgery?
@@boogiebear3095 that's good!
Everybody, we all need to thank Gracie for her beautiful voice for playing Penny. Love you to Gracie! All your pets are adorable. I hope Lily doesn’t get too jealous over Penny. She is a sweetheart to.

As a vet it's refreshing to see owners take such wonderful care of their pets. Penny will feel so much better once she has recovered from surgery. Hoping for quick healing for all of your pets!
It's all about the" Love" ❤️
Pulling all of her teeth was horrible. How will she eat?
Love your screen name!! 😂❤
@@nancydavis4618 They have no problem eating. My cat removed all his teeth. He ate mostly special wet/soft food for cats with diabetes but if i gave him pellets he had no problem eating them :)
Nancy Davis: it's a lot better than letting them suffer and die of dental problems which absolutely can happen if not caught in time.
Her little face,she was so brave in the vets ...
How odd that i didnt know about you at this time,yet made me cry,remembering taking my dear cats for their teeth to be extracted.
Now I'm not able to have any more cats,so enjoy watching,perfect penny.xxx❤❤
I teared up over Penny having to through this surgery. The other day I watched a video about how difficult tooth extractions can be on cats! She was in good hands and is handling everything so well! Her family takes such good care of her!
Am so so relieved and happy to see Penny is recovering well . I love you Penny❤💚💛💜
You have no idea how much you've helped cat parents learn about stomatitis. It happens; I've been there. You've shown what to expect, how to care for the cat and how to prepare emotionally and financially. Fur babies go through things better than we do. But your love and thoughtful sharing helps everyone.❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼🐱🐾
Agreed! I also had a cat have 12 or 14 teeth taken out do to stomatitis as well. No issues with recovery 💕
Oh, no! Poor Penny. I hope she feels better now. Bless her. ❤🤗 xxx
I can REALLY appreciate what you went through with Penny. And you are blessed with the caliber of pet care down there. My little boy Bobby didn't do so well. We're in Alaska and it truly is the last frontier. After 3 trips to 3 different towns Bobby could not be helped.
He had to fall asleep on my lap for the very last time. There's a hole in our home as big as our state.
I'm so glad that Penny got the help she needed.
That was rather intense to watch. 🥺 You all have been through quite a lot recently. Poor sweet little Penny, I'm so glad she's feeling better. ❤️
I am a cat lover all my life and I teared up when the video got to the point that I realized, yes, Penny was going to need a full extraction. She is a dear, sweet fur baby, and I am so glad it looks like she has pulled through this, but I can see the stress you were feeling too and I hope you too are OK now.
All my cats are gone now, my last was a very sweet guy who looked exactly like Penny, and also talked a lot (but in cat language, not English) who left us a couple of years ago at 19 y.o. Now I have got to the point where I am thinking about adopting and have my eye on three siblings (grey striped tabbies like Penny) at one of the local private shelters near where I live.
I have really come to know and love Penny and enjoy your family and all your babies and of course Gracie too. You put a lot of work into your videos and they are greatly appreciated and YOUR sweetness shows through too.
I have read many of the comments as of this first day this video was posted, and echo all the wonderful sentiments your viewers have written, truly some wonderful thoughts are going your way.
Best wishes from SE Florida.
I hope you can bring your new fur babies home! You seem like a sweet person & I'm sure you will take good care of them. I've always found tabbies to be the hardiest, best hunting cats! Best Wishes, also from SE FL.
Aww- I've got 4 cats! 😺
Our cat Lily had full extractions last October. She became a much happier and healthier cat without all the infected teeth. She was no longer in pain. Best of everything to you and your family and Penny. ❤️ PS our miniature Schnauzer's name is Penny.
Those poor cats can hide so much-my Dad’s cat, Mac had diabetes and he hid his bad teeth! My sister took great care of him until last year.
Lies you are a complete liar
Come over your neighbor and we both know each other and we have honestly been talking about you for a long time and how you been missing your cats honestly we all know
Penny is so precious! Thank you to Mummy and Daddy for taking care of her and loving her and to her sister and other fur siblings for loving on her too❤❤💙❤❤
I cried when it was revealed how Penny had ALL her teeth extracted ! But, I imagine she's in much better spirits now that she doesn't have the other problems anymore. Such a sweet kitty, she is !!! TYSM for sharing this time with us all. Love your channel bunches and am praying for you all. 😻❣🙏
BIG hugs to everyone! One of the worst aspects of being a pet owner is not being able to explain circumstances like this. It breaks my heart every time.
Yes I hate that we can’t actually communicate why we have to do these things with them🥺 Penny has been so loving since getting home, I’m hoping she understands we want to help her pain go away ❤️
Me too! It is worst part for me!
@@aymieandfamily Last year, I found out that my ten-year-old Siamese cat, Jasper, had stomatitis, an oral inflammation. The vet recommended that I go to a specialist who said the best thing to do would be to remove all of his teeth because of the infection. I could tell it was pretty bad because it was on the outside of his lips as well as affecting his gums. He had to be persuaded to eat and he didn't want to play either. when I went to the specialist, he recommended pulling all of Jasper's teeth. I hated doing it but I also didn't want to see him in pain anymore. After the surgery, once his mouth had healed, he seems like a new cat. He eats well and plays and flies around the house with the other two cats. I definitely don't regret having this procedure done. He is enjoying life again!
I hope that Penny will come through the surgery quickly and that her mouth will soon feel better. since I'm writing this a couple of weeks after it was posted, I'm assuming that she's doing well already! Love you Penny and family!❤❤❤

I have a male Tabby named Steve. He's a doppelganger of Penny's. He had a full extraction about 3 years ago due to his stomatitis. It was the BEST decision for his health. He's been thriving since then and will be 9 this August. He eats kibble with no prob. As you know, cats are amazingly resilient. It'll take some adjustment but mostly on your part. Penny will adapt before you know it! Much love to you all. Thanks for being such a good friend to animals.
Penny is such a brave girl… thanks for sharing! Enjoyed!
My landlords cat gained 8 pounds after extraction. 😂👍
so you cat eats kibbles . I’m feeding my boy just wet foods .. let me try feeding him dry food .
Penny makes it like a walk
in the park..
@@humble72 Steve eats kibble and Tuna and Pate. We try to give him a "balance." The cartilage in their gums becomes hard enough to use to chew somehow. I hope your cat is doing well.
This was so much more emotional than I thought it would be. So glad Penny is doing well, and the pups too!
Omg, I’m so glad she’s ok, I’d have been freaked out if they said they might break my cats jaw!! You handled it well. Love Penny so much!!
Thank you so much for this video. My siamese boy asher is going in for extractions today and I was super anxious for him. After seeing this I'm feeling a lot better. Send prayers and good vibes please!
I love seeing people who clearly love their animals. Seeing how Penny reacts to you is just as sweet, she loves you so much and you can just tell that you love her so much.

@@stephanieelting5013 How sad! Why are you being told that you can't have a cat?
Few months ago I noticed one of my cat has bad breath - her gums were really red and it was so weird because she acted completely normal and was eating well - out vet recommended going to veterinary Dentist to consult her case as nothing was really helping and it turned out she's going go have all her teeth extracted at the end of this month, she's only 3 years old. Thank you for this video! It really calmed me down.
Penny was so brave through all this! I hope all your fur babies recover well and are now pain free.
Poor Penny. I wish you a speedy recovery & back to your cheeky normal self. I adore you Penny Gorgeous. Xxx
Lilly and all the other siblings being concerned about her sister was the cutest part 😍😍💞
I love the way Jimmy and Penny and Lily interact, it's simply adorable.
Absolutely 🐈💗
Aymie, you and your family are so creative and cool. I love Penny's robust appetite! It's a very good sign. This particular video is very instructive showing the dental problems that cats can have. From what I have seen, and I've had many cats, this full tooth extraction is necessary for more cats than I had realized. And no, vets don't know the "root" cause. Penny videos are my favorite and they always leave me with great sense of well-being as well as tickling my funny bone.
Poor Penny. Its lovely to see just how gentle Gracie is with her too. Such a wonderful family
It's so hard to watch how Aymie is so scared for Penny, but she is just the bravest cat I have ever seen! I was also worried about anestesia and how she would feel after the surgery and how she would adjusts to her new food. Her family made a good decision to finally get rid of pain and avoid further surgeries. Penny is going to be just fine and soon will forget about these difficult days. 🙏😼
Lily's dramatic performance at 30:28 was just HILARIOUS😆
Love from Belarus! ❤️
Sad at times I wanted to cry. Penny was a courageous furry baby but Lily has no empathy whatsoever. Thanks for all the family to be so sweet at all times. 💕
PS: having a tooth out in a few days but no one to pacify me 😢
@@Jane.2105 Oh, I hate being at dentist, this is tough. Stay strong. Think about smth funny while you're going through this🤝
Need to add that humans are born w/o teeth, then they grow, then we loose them, they grow again, then spend $$$$ ++++ whatever happens until we go ... poor 🐈 or other animals go thru more or less same thing. 😥
My kitty just died after 11 years of kidney failure. I never realized how much it breaks your heart. Watching Penny makes me smile ever though I don't want to. I'm so glad Penny has a loving family and will be OK. Good job
Sorry for the loss of your feline companion. I know how hard that is. When you are ready to share your ♥️ with another I hope you'll rush down to shelter & get 1...or even 2. They will love you & your 1st kitty would not mind at all cuz' you still & always will love that 1 too. Love doesn't die!

I have to say. All your animals are lucky to have such a great and loving family! 💗

Hope penny feels better soon after getting her mouth surgery
Hoping Penny is ok. She is a clone in every sense of our cat Wolfi. I look at Penny and see Wolfi. Keep us posted.
Penny and the gang and you and your family were my solace and refuge after my husband passed away summer of 2022. Your escspades and humor gave me respite from sadness. After every video I came away refreshed and with some joy and healing. Thank you so much!!! I'm going to be in your area late April and hope to run across you to thank you in person! Love, Shari
❤
It's lovely how much you love Penny and are always there for her. She's a very blessed cat! Just one small tip: cats get very stressed in moving cars - being able to see things flying by is not in their understanding. I always put something over the cage like a small blanket, so the cat can't see so much - it calms them.
Praying for your sweet girl. We all love her, and are praying for her safety through her surgery. Prayers also being sent for Jimmy and Josie.
I was so scared that Lily wouldn't accept Penny back 😭 So glad they made up. Praying for Penny's speedy recovery 🙏
I've been crying the whole time I've been watching this. It's not fair! Poor Penny! She didn't deserve this! 😭
I would have thought all of the salt from the ham would have helped preserve her teeth.😿
I have a cat that had teeth extracted I was more worried about
the anesthetic then the extractions.
@@maggielarson5472 I didn't know that there was some kind of a disease that would make a cat lose all of their teeth. That was very upsetting to me. My cat had trouble with a couple of his teeth but only had to get a couple of teeth removed. I lost my cat back in 2005 when he passed away from heart problems. He was my first cat. I haven't had another one since even though I really want one. I can't afford to have one. So I've adopted Penny and I just got super upset watching the video. I just hope that she recovers well.
Penny & the pups were all so brave & you parents did so well with a crazy amount of fur baby care crammed into a short period of time. Let's hope for a nice break from all that extra stress. Hang in there Penny. You'll be eating ham again soon!🥰
Back in April our daughter’s cat Finn had a full mouth extraction at a dental specialist due to stomatitis and tooth resorption. Finn’s recovery went so well and it is such a comfort knowing that he is no longer suffering with a painful mouth. Finn is a very happy cat now.
Lily was pretty brave, even when suspicious and confused. No swatting: Impressive! When the tension dies down and two cats once again eat together peacefully, it is such a relief.
Yes. Once that vet smell subsided, Lily was cool. Her yelling was funny.
😂im not even sure how i found you but am so thankful i did.My hubby of 35 yrs passed in jan 2019. I found you all shortly after. You were the only bright spot in my life. Thanks to Penny and Lily i got 2 ɓabies zoey ( who looks just like Penny) and her brother Zeus. They are the most incredible fur babies ever. Thank you for sharing your family with us. You pulled me back from a very dark place. My babies just celebrated their 4th bday last month
I'm really sorry for your loss. There are many examples of how adopted furbabies are the ones who rescued and saved their hoomans. Not the other way around. I'm glad you have your babies with you. Please give them extra cuddles for me 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍🏻🍀
Poor sweet little Penny!
I've had many oral surgeries myself, so I know how scary it must have been for her. And how unpleasant the recovery can be. But it's so much easier when those who really love you are taking good care of you. 💖
Oh my friend, you did a good job. My tiny chihuahua had 15 teeth pulled out during dental cleaning, which made me cry, but she felt better afterward. Thanks for always making me smile, penny girl ❤
Oh Aymie. I was crying so hard. Penny came through it with flying colors. She is a real champ and I know she's going to feel so much better. Jimmy and Josie did awesome too. Prayers for a quick and complete recovery for all. Love you all.
Love you Penny poor baby❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
I was have a cry too, we love them all so much. 🐈🐶🐾💗🇦🇺
I cried a bunch, too!! ❤❤❤
Penny is surrounded by love. this whole video is really heart warming. I really hope both the dogs and penny continue to get better. ❤😻🐶.
So thankful sweet Penny is doing so well! Love & prayers to all of you. ❤️🙏🐶🐶🐱🐱🐱🐾
This is so well done, it is like a short docudrama. I had a medical emergency with my cat Autumn last summer. Her sister, Sophie, who is usually a sweetheart, acted like she was possessed when Autumn came home and smelled different. Sophie howled, spit, slapped. I had to keep them separated for a couple of days.
This always happens when I take one or the other to the vet or grooming. They’re brother and sister and it’s a couple of days before they act normal. Is it because of the smell? I thought only my cats acted that way.
I am so in love with Penny and your whole family! It is so uplifting to see how caring and thoughtful you are for your pets and your entire family. The pups are too cute, too! I'm so glad all went well. ❤
OK now after watching this fabulous video a few times, I have to say how marvelous it was to see the interaction of all the kids with our Penny girl. Lily, true to her personality, thinking she has a great mystery figured out, was just delightful.
Lol 😆
I totally agree.
This show is the best. I watch each one several times.💖
Plz take good care of my sweet kitty
The shot near the end when Gracie is petting Penny made me tear up. My 15 year old cats have both lost teeth. You are a great pet family, we wish you the best.
She will do just fine. She received excellent Veterinary care and is receiving excellent care at home with tons of love. Once the mouth has healed, cats with no teeth can even eat dry food! Good job brave Penny!😽😻
Thank you! Yes I was surprised that cats with no teeth do ok with dry food too!
can confirm, my cat had all her teeth pulled before I adopted her last year. I give her both dry & wet food every day and she's happy with all of it. in fact she is quite plump 😳
Yup! My Dexter had all of his teeth out ... and gained a pound between the surgery date and follow up date. (>.
@@aymieandfamily That makes sense. Cats are carnivores and don't have the vertical tooth surface to chew food. They can crack kibble a bit, but for the most part they just swallow their dry foods whole.♥ P.S. I love how you included Lily's response to Penny's return; it can be really tough when your best friend comes home smelling wrong.
Maybe Betty could be featured more....we love ALL of your pets and the family unit of course!
Penny’s comments are priceless! I am so glad her surgery went well. (I am a new fan). Hey Penny you are awesome and I am from the Valley! Have a great day!
Bless her little heart. Rest up Penny..we love you.
Omg the little "Lily I love you!" At the end of Day 1 of Penny's recovery... Penny and Gracie are so sweet 🥹
So glad to see Penny is doing well. This really hit home for this cat lover. I’ve experienced full mouth extraction with 2 rescued cats recently. I was actually so relieved knowing they were no longer in pain. Both did very well with no teeth, it was amazing to see how they immediately adapted. Penny is so lucky to have people care for her and go ahead with that surgery. Stomatitis is very serious and painful condition for cats. Oftentimes overlooked as Aymie says cats hide pain well. Thank you for sharing the video. If it helps anyone out there recognize this in their cat, how great that would be. Don’t be afraid of extraction - they do quite well. And will end up saving them a life of pain. Love to Penny and the lovely funny family !!!
Aymie I have been introduced to Penny just about 5 months ago and she is the Delight of our life. We all laugh and watch penny and your show thank you so much for sharing your life and your family with all of us. I have a cat named Bailey and a cat named Winston.
Penny is such a sweetheart
I love Penny so this was so emotional for me. Great work Gracie on the change in voice and change in the whisker licking sounds with her teeth out. Lily's concern was so loving. Thank you Amy. This show gets me through blue moments.
My sister's cat had all his teeth extracted a few years ago. He's a happy, healthy boy. He has no problem eating both wet and dry food. And treats! I hope Penny has a speedy recovery.
So good to know, I’m glad he’s doing well!
Aww, precious Penny!!! We love you so much! Gracie is an extremely talented little actor!!
It is so hard because they can’t tell you how the reel or what hurts. Great video. You are very talented in matching penny’s mouth movements to words. I pray with my three fur babies every day.
I'm so sorry Penny had to go through all of this. It looks like she's healing and with your love and attention, she will be completely well in no time! Love your videos!
She’s healing great so far❤️
@@aymieandfamily and I have a feeling it was much harder for you than for Penny!
Poor Penny! And poor mom! I felt everything she felt like it was my own cat. These vids really make it feel like we are part of the family. ❤
Agree
Penny...I am pretty sure that my sweet little Paisley will be having all her teeth extracted soon as well. I had her watch your video and she said...."If Penny can do it....then so can I. " Thank you for helping us with the fear of getting tooth surgery ! You did amazing !! Love you ! ❤️
That's very sweet.
You can do it, Paisley!! We are all rooting for you!
This film hit me in the heart . Your love, care and awareness for Penny, plus Lily's funny comments, have me laughing and crying at once.( I had a tuxedo cat , much like Lily in personality .)
Thank you for being such a great family and an example of love. We need more of you in this world, Aymie's family.xxoo
My heart hurts for Penny. When you sang you are my sunshine I started crying as I used to sing that to my Cookie. Sending prayers for a speedy recovery🙏
It's amazing how our fur babies are braver than us! Great job! prayers and love to you all! We so enjoy watching Penny!!!
Bless the doggie's & Penny's little hearts. ❤️
❤❤❤ I love how much these for babies are taken care of, and loved! Medical procedures, and never easy, but you’re giving them all the love that they could ever need🎉❤❤❤
No worries, Penny! ❤️ You'll do just fine without your teeth. I've had several cats throughout the years that had to remove all their teeth due to dental diseases. In fact I have one cat that just recently lost his four remaining teeth due to stomatitis and he feels so much better without them. Since you don't have to hunt and catch your daily food, you're doing perfectly fine even without all teeth. The most important thing is to not be in constant pain and if removing teeth can accomplish that, so be it. You're just as cute without them and lots of cats without any teeth at all even continue wanting to eat dry food as well as wet food. So no worries, Penny! ❤️ Your family's got your back! Always and forever. Keanu (my toothless cat) sends you the nicest boop and cuddle and wishes you smooth recovery. 🐱 He made it and you will too! ❤️ 🤗 😘
I really love all the things you come up with... You are all soooo funny and a wonderful family! 😄👌
Thank you so much for sharing! Yes, her not being in pain is the biggest goal ❤️
At a point you have to. They are in a lot of pain. Wet food from now on
@@a1mi551 no offense, but why would you say that? U don’t just going around saying that someone’s cat is probably in pain. U comfort them and tell them that their cat isn’t in any pain and it will be ok.
@@Charlie_On_4Paws you sound like my idiot landlord trying to act like my mom. I keep it real with people. Get off the sentimentality cross
@@Charlie_On_4Paws and you did offend me in spite of yourself 👍😂
Penny brings so much joy to people ❤
Awww! I'm sorry Penny had to have her teeth removed, but I hope she will be better & stay healthy. So many of us love her & your whole family. You are brilliant to be able to create the videos! Give Penny a big get-well hug & 😘 kiss!
P.S. How can we donate toward Penny's vet expenses?
No one could adore Penny, you and your family more than I. My 14 year old long hair ginger boy just had his teeth pulled. He is fine and eating too much again. Your daughter's voice just melts my heart.
Awe. That anesthetic made our Penny so loopy. It's ok Penny. We ❤️ you. Lily is a riot "run for your lives."
27:52 yeah I swear I could literally see her looking under the door 😆
I don't cry easily and I was shedding tears like crazy for Penny girl. Your videos give me so much joy and I'm praying for Penny's full recovery, looks like she's doing great! So happy to see 🤗
I just lost my last 2cats and seeing penny, lily, and Betty makes me feel better
I can relate. My cat passed in April and seeing Penny is comforting. I was able to rescue another kitty who was being abused by his owner. He is only a year old and needs two teeth removed.
I will say to you the same thing that my Vet said to me when my sweet Jaspurr passed away- Your cats knew they were loved, take comfort in that and I hope you also take comfort in the warm memories that their love imprinted on your heart. 🩷🐱
AHH so sorry , I know the feeling 😞❤️❤️❤️❤️😺😺🙏
My cat died today... rip bagheera.. My cat died... he was found under the bed, he was stiff... he was perfectly OK and acting normal yesterday... we put him in a box with a pillow and his favorite toys. I wish he lived longer..
