My cat has really bad breath. I was wondering if anyone has any solutions or ways of cleaning their teeth?
Thanks

Has your cat had a dental exam by the vet in the last few years? If his breath is that bad there could be some rotting teeth and gum tissue in there that hurts the cat a lot.
For brushing the teeth I offer this great video from a college of veterinary medicine: below…but i see someone else already posted that video!
well you can start brushing their teeth.

but chances are your cat is going to need to go into the vet for a dental cleaning. If the teeth are really bad, there might be cavities and the teeth will need to be pulled for optimal health.
Umm I can only think of one…They are called Greenies for dogs and cats they brush the teeth there is a website for them ive tried them on my animals once I can see the difference! I don’t know but you might could look for the at a pet store like Petsmart or Petco. Good luck I will try to find that website they will send you free samples!
Sometimes the problem is not so obvious. My cat has a breath problem whenever he has the "hairball" problem (a lot of hair ending up in the cat’s stomache, the cat has problem digesting and therefore..pooping. That’s what causes the bad smell.) But from what I read, usually it’s a dental problem. It doesn’t hurt to check for symptoms of the "hairball" problem though (bad mood, loss of appetite, sometimes vomitting..and the thing I mentioned above ;p)
