Take a big towel %26amp; spread it on a table. Put the kitty on the towel with her head hanging over 1 end. Wrap the sides around her back, fold the rest of the towel over her back %26amp; wrap the sides under her belly. This will help secure her so you can hold her without hurting her or getting yourself hurt. Use a kitty toothbrush (a fingerbrush works best) %26amp; brush your cats teeth. She will shake her head, gag, whatever, but a fingerbrush gives you the control to get the job done.

Reply:You don%26#039;t have to clean cats%26#039; teeth, they stay clean on their own.
Reply:1.Assemble supplies: sterile gauze, scissors, cat toothpaste (available at pet stores) or a weak sterile solution recommended by your veterinarian.





2.Wrap a strip of gauze around the index finger of your dominant hand and either dip it in the sterile solution, or apply a small amount of toothpaste to your fingertip.





3.Holding the cat in your lap, open his mouth





4.Gently rub your %26#039;finger brush%26#039; in a circular motion on his teeth, concentrating on the area next to the gums. Gently massage the gums at the same time. It%26#039;s not necessary to do the back sides of the teeth.





5.Once your cat will tolerate this procedure, you can graduate to a small child%26#039;s toothbrush.





6.Give kitty a few loving pats and kind words, along with a little treat to polish off with his shiny clean teeth.





Tips:


You might want to experiment with flavored toothpaste for cats. There is a fish-flavored one that is quite tasty.


If you start practicing examining your cats teeth at a very young age, this process will be much easier. See %26#039;How To Gentle a Kitten%26#039; for suggestions.


Bleeding of the gums is a sign your cat needs professional dental scaling by your veterinarian, so attend to that as soon as possible.
