My cat has a dark layer of plaque on its teeth. It's like a hard shield.
The last time he had a dental cleaning in the year 2022, the x-ray images were fine, there was nothing wrong with his teeth.
Is there anything else I can do or be aware of when I choose to have my cat's teeth cleaned again? He is a Birman cat.
The last time he had his teeth cleaned was in May 2022.
I think I will book an appointment in a couple of months so we can get out of the winter energy ;)
And a question...
So after the dental cleaning this time, what can I do right after to ensure the best possible dental hygiene?
Because the other times, I haven't done anything after. And I want to learn that now and do the best I can :-)
@Dr. Jeff
Yes, the last dental cleaning was when he was 9, almost 10. It was done by the regular vet.
I have moved far away from where I used to live where the dental specialist was. So it's not an option for me to use that place.
I'm just wondering if I can do something now, like what you...
A little background on my now 11-year-old cat. When he was 3 years old, he developed bad teeth, a lot of plaque and red gums and his breath was like fermented. I went to a dental vet specialist and my cat was put under anesthesia and had a dental x-ray. A large molar was removed. It was bad, as...
I was wondering what would be good to have in the house, of course I hope nothing acute happens, but if they get a little bad again, for example with an upset stomach.
So I'm not left without the knowledge or tools to know what to do.
What can you recommend? Are there any products you can...
My boy cat's gums are red around the edges. The vet said it needed to be done soon, he said I only had him for another 3 years. That comment hit me hard. I have a hard time finding a good vet I feel, the one I used is also used as a vet in a zoo, so I figured it's a good vet.
They gets pure...
I feel like I'm in a position to ask now, so I've decided to post here.
I am 37 years old and have two cats who are now 11 and 12 years old.
All our lives, we have just survived and not been able to live our lives.
The reason for this is because I have had some challenges with my health that...
New update.
Last night when I was sleeping, both my cats were up in bed with me (as they usually do) and suddenly it sounded like water was turned on in my bed. It was my boy cat who had an acute thin stomach, he was scared because he was asleep before.
We got up late and I offered boiled...

Hi, we just woke up.
My boy cat drank some water yesterday and ate a tiny bit of his food. Shortly afterwards he had thin stools.
I tried to get my girl cat to eat something, but she wouldn't.
Last night she slept with me as she usually does. When we woke up, she seemed normal as usual, a...
I feel this is an important question to ask, because i feel i go in a little panic now.
I don't know if it's a little detox symptoms (I have 1 day given them some cat drops

I have for 4 months ago given them these drops as well, where there was no reaction(I am in...
Thanks for answer. I see where i normally buy raw meat from, that they also have whole one-day old chickens, there are minced.
Will that also be a good thing to give?
