I had two cats with constant mouth problems that my vet tested for 'bartonella'.  She put them on an antibiotic for it which helped.  Felv positive cats often have mouth problems in general.  You said she has lost teeth.  Did you mean the vet pulled them?  Either way, how long has it been since a v
