How to Make Natural Cat Toothpaste

Your cat can benefit from having her teeth and gums cleaned naturally. Start getting her used to having her teeth cleaned by rubbing her teeth and gums with your finger. Once she is comfortable with this, switch over to a soft finger brush, gently rubbing her teeth and gums with the brush. Use the damp brush every time you choose to clean her teeth before and during the brushing process.
