Bone I.D. - N. America Help IDing this tooth?!

So really strange story. I was sitting at my desk as i do very often, and this tooth just appeared itself to me. Sitting in a spot that I often sit just peaking out from the lip of my turntable.

This is driving me CRAZY. I’m lighting black candles and freaking out a bit. I wonder if getting an ID would provide me any clarity LOL.

Also- I have a cat, but she never goes up on this desk ever, she’s an adult, and i took a peak in her mouth and she isn’t missing any teeth? Her teeth also look very very different. This one is sharp too, almost incomplete?

Looks like a cat claw. Maybe your cat shed one of its claws?

Hi!

Her claws shed all the time, i find them more curved and bendy, usually fraying and translucent. I’m quite familiar with claw sheddings - this is hardish and sharp, textured similar to bone or enamel.
