The cause of bad breath in kittens needs to be found first and then treated accordingly. First of all, if the kitten’s bad breath is caused by poor gastrointestinal function, then the kitten’s gastrointestinal problem must be solved first. You can add some probiotics to the food to regulate the cat’s intestines. Secondly, if the bad breath is caused by dental plaque or dental calculus, you can brush the kitten’s teeth every day or feed the kitten with tooth cleaning powder every day to remove the dental plaque and dental calculus, thereby achieving the purpose of eliminating bad breath. Finally, if the bad breath is caused by oral ulcers, you need to supplement vitamin B to improve the resistance of the oral mucosa.
1. Add probiotics to food
If the kitten’s gastrointestinal tract function is weak, the high temperature of the food passing through the gastrointestinal tract will produce unpleasant gas and be discharged from the mouth, resulting in bad breath. . In this case, the owner can choose to feed the kitten some probiotics to regulate the gastrointestinal tract and improve gastrointestinal function. The gastrointestinal problem will be fine, and the kitten will not have bad breath.
2. Brush the kitten’s teeth regularly
If the kitten eats meat food for a long time and does not brush its teeth regularly, it will form dental plaque or calculus over time. Not only will it cause bad breath, but it will also lead to gingivitis, stomatitis, drooling and other conditions in kittens. In this case, you can feed the kitten cat food, eat as little meat as possible, and brush the kitten's teeth regularly. You can also use tooth cleaning powder, mouthwash, tooth cleaning gel, etc. to reduce the growth of bacteria in the mouth.
If a cat with severe dental calculus needs to go to a pet hospital for examination and ultrasonic dental cleaning treatment, and follow-up anti-inflammatory care to ensure good oral hygiene, it can also prevent loose teeth, bleeding gums, apical abscesses, etc.
3. Supplement vitamin B
When a kitten is deficient in vitamin B, it will also be accompanied by symptoms of bad breath. In particular, the lack of vitamin B can lead to oral ulcers, which will not only cause drooling but also cause oral ulcers. This can cause the kitten to be reluctant to eat due to pain. In this case, it is recommended to supplement the kitten with an appropriate amount of pet-specific vitamin B to improve the resistance of the oral mucosa.
