Cat teeth chews.
When it comes to both treats and cat dental chews the bigger the better.
Many of the smaller treats that claim to remove plaque with their texture are actually small enough for your cat to swallow whole.
In most cases cat dental treats come in dry form and are made from special ingredients and feature a more porous texture than regular treats.
It s unlikely these toys would impact common problem areas in the back of a cat s mouth.
Cats typically don t chew on their toys and generally use only their canine teeth when hunting and playing.
You can even try using healthy chews and treats as a reward for good behavior while getting your cat used to having their teeth cleaned.
If your cat s teeth have to really dig into the treat it will help clean them down to the gum line.
At the same time they encourage chewing action and allow a cat to have fun doing it.
