I’ve had a lot of cats in my lifetime, but my 3 year old cat is the first one I’ve had who has bad breath. It’s unbearable!

I will be switching cat foods soon. As soon as this bag runs out, no more Whiskas! But, I don’t know if that is the problem.

I have seen breath fresheners for dogs, but none for cats.

I am going to mention it to her vet next time I take her in to see if it is feline halitosis. I have heard of people brushing their cats’ teeth, but my cat would never, ever let me do that. Is there anything I can do to freshen her breath at home?

Thanks!

P.S. Feel free to chuckle if you would like. I know I would.

I was told by my doctor that my tonsils got crypts which trap food debris, like rice, in them. My cases is not serious though as I don’t have inflammations yet. I browsed through the web and laser tonsillectomy is recommended to help removing the crypts & crevices by smoothening the tonsils’ surfaces. This can prevent debris from being trapped in the long term. But how good is this treatment? Will it have side-effects & does it hurt? Will the tonsils still function like normal? How long does it take to get full recovery?
