Did you know? Cats have bad breath too! Teach you a few tricks to solve the problem of cats "vomiting fragrance"...
A few days ago, Xiao 8 went to have his teeth checked. This checkup was not a big deal. He had 3 wisdom teeth extracted. Now his face is still a little swollen.
After returning home, the cat owner was so frightened when he saw the pig-headed face that he hid under the sofa.
Suddenly I am curious, can cats get tooth decay?
Like us humans, we usually brush our teeth day and night, which will lead to tooth decay. Cats never clean their teeth, don’t they get cavities?
After checking the information on the Internet, I learned that cats not only have oral problems, but some cats even pay the price with their lives.
Today, let’s see with Xiao 8 how to solve the problem of cat owners “vomiting fragrance”.
If your cat has a good personality, you can try to open its mouth and smell it to determine whether the cat has bad breath.
Especially those who usually feed wet cat food should pay more attention, because wet cat food is easier to adhere to the teeth than dry cat food.
Just like humans, if these food residues cannot be cleaned up in time, they will turn into tartar over time.
If it lasts longer, it will turn into dental calculus, and the bad breath problem will become more and more serious.
If your cat's breath is not that serious, you only need to brush the cat's teeth regularly every week...
But if your cat's breath is severe, then you need to receive timely treatment and take them to a nearby pet hospital for teeth scaling and cleaning.
Dental calculus should be regarded as one of the minor oral problems of cats. If it is more serious, cats may even suffer from diseases such as periodontitis.
I don’t know if you have ever suffered from periodontitis, but the feeling is very uncomfortable. In severe cases, it may even lead to tooth loss.
In addition to periodontitis, cats may also develop gingivitis if their teeth are not cleaned for a long time.
If your cat has symptoms such as drooling, red and swollen gums, bad breath, and tooth loss, it is likely to have gingivitis and periodontitis, and you must take it to the hospital for treatment.
Don’t underestimate this disease. A pet doctor once shared an article on the Internet about a cat that died of severe periodontitis.
Of course, bad breath is not necessarily caused entirely by dental calculus. It may also be caused by the cat’s gastrointestinal problem.
The pet doctor said: If the cat has abnormal diarrhea, constipation and other symptoms, it means there is a problem with the gastrointestinal tract, which may also cause the cat to have bad breath.
Of course, it all depends on the situation. Some cats may have diarrhea or bad breath caused by changing cat food. The poop doctor can regulate the cat's stomach according to the conditions.
If the cat continues to have vomiting, diarrhea, etc., it needs to seek medical treatment in time.
In addition to the points mentioned above, pet doctors also suggest that cat owners can regularly supplement cat owners with nutrients, which can also avoid the problem of bad breath in cats.
I really didn’t know it until I saw it. I was shocked when I saw it. I didn’t expect that cats’ oral problems are so complicated.
Of course, you poop scavengers don’t have to worry. Although the above is a bit scary, under normal circumstances, the possibility of cat owners suffering from serious oral diseases is still very small.
But daily cleaning is still very necessary, so everyone also remembers to brush the cat’s teeth regularly. As parents, we must take responsibility for our children.
