A healthy mouth is a good indicator of your cat’s overall health, but many cat parents ignore their cat’s oral health. By the time they’re 3 years old 70% of cats are showing signs of oral disease, according to the Foundation For Veterinary Dentistry. While an oral exam should continue to be an important part of your cat’s annual wellness checkup, developing a daily tooth brushing routine can go a long way in preventing damage and disease. Since brushing a cat’s teeth can be challenging, here are some tips to make the experience as easy as possible for both of you.
Tips#03
Choose the correct toothbrush and toothpaste
Never attempt to brush your cat’s teeth with a toothbrush or toothpaste intended for humans. A human toothbrush will be too large for your cat’s teeth and a human toothpaste can be toxic. Instead, pick up a toothbrush and toothpaste made specifically for cats.
