How to Get Rid of Your Cat's Bad Breath

Your cat's breath smells bad? You don't enjoy greeting your cat any more because of that awful smell? Well, that's something that many cat owners experience. Same as the human bad breath, animal bad breath is caused by microorganisms in the mouth. The microorganisms eliminate the protein releasing sulfurs in the air. This is how tartar appears on the teeth. Because cats can't brush their teeth, maintaining their teeth clean is very hard if you don't go to the vet regularly for teeth cleaning. The tartar comes from the food and looks like a yellow buildup that surrounds the teeth.

So, what can you do to help your cat get rid of that bad smelling tartar? First of all you could brush your cat's teeth periodically with a toothbrush and extra toothpaste. The toothpaste you use must hold the permissible substances that dissolve the tartar from the cat's teeth. You should never use human toothpaste.

BAD

Besides the fact that it won't remove the tartar the human toothpaste will also leave a bad taste in your cat's mouth. Another foremost aspect is the way you move the toothbrush. You have to move the brush nearby each tooth so that the tartar will fall of the teeth from the gum line downward. After performing this task for any weeks you'll precisely notice some improvements in your cat's breath.

You cat's food might be a guess of tartar buildup. Cheap cat food contains a lot of bacteria and the tartar appearance is inevitable. Ask the veterinary what kind of cat food it is recommended to use. There are also some treatments that you can use to eliminate the tartar but you shouldn't rely on them. You can use a rehabilitation as an extra to commonplace teeth cleaning, but if you use only a rehabilitation without any teeth cleaning it will not offer very good results.

In some cases bad breath might be caused by a liver or kidney illness. These are the organs that eliminate the bacteria out of the organism.
