Oral Health Regimen

Do you brush your teeth?

I sincerely hope the answer to that question is yes.

Cats cannot brush their own teeth; they cannot stand in front of a mirror and make sure that plaque and tartar aren’t causing issues.

This falls on you to help your cat have optimal oral health.

Each cat in our cattery gets their teeth brushed, as the oral care of my cats falls on me.

We use a 360° toothbrush along with Virbac enzymatic toothpaste or pure virgin coconut oil. The toothpaste or coconut oil is applied to the toothbrush, and the cat is then allowed to chew on the toothbrush while I am holding on to it. Make sure that both sides of the mouth are brushed.

Failure to maintain a proper oral health regimen can result in oral disease.

The entire process I described above takes roughly one minute to complete.

Do you have that one minute a day to spend on your furry family member?
