Dental care! Every cat needs to have her teeth brushed several times a week. As a general rule, the smaller the cat, the bigger the problem it has with gum disease and tooth decay.You can't use toothpaste or toothbrushes designed for people to brush your cat's teeth. Rolling Plains Veterinary Clinic can sell you a specially formulated feline toothpaste and a flat feline toothbrush that cats enjoy. We can also give you some pointers on how to make toothbrushing time a fun experience for your cat.
