How to Brush Your Cat's Teeth

Video Transcript

"Hi! I'm Dr. Adrienne Mulligan and I am the owner of Camp Verde Veterinary Clinic and I am here today on behalf of expertvillage.com and I am here to talk about cat grooming. Okay, on the same day you are doing all your grooming and taking the whole day and spending it on your kitty spa, the next thing to deal with is good dental hygiene and this is a enzymatic toothpaste for dogs and cats. It has a flavor; this one is poultry flavored. Some are fish flavored depending on what your cat likes and this is just a little sample and this is my favorite thing. It is just a toothbrush that goes on your finger and then you just put this toothpaste on there and then I am holding her kind of in my arms and just lifting her upper lip and her lower lip. I know and I am getting in there and she can lick some of it because she kind of likes it. I'm just working on, I know, there you go. I know you are okay. I'm not hurting you. There you go and basically just really working on the outsides because the enzyme in it is going to do most of the work and a little bit of brushing you can get it in there. It's just going to be that much better for them. You don't have to do the inside too much. Most of their tartar builds up on the outside of their teeth and if you can get that, you are doing pretty good. "
