Smelly breath


I picked Salt up today to give her a check over and noticed her breath really, really stinks bad

I've also noticed she's got a bald spot comming on the inside of her right front leg. It doesn't look red or sore and she will allow me to touch it. It's just got no hair on it

I think it's gonna be another cat to the vets on Friday aswell as the little kitties

Re: Smelly breath


We were told that she has gingtivitus (sp) by her previous owners but never noticed really bad breath on her before now. My vet didn't think it was that bad when i took her for a checkup the other week but maybe worth getting her cewhcked out when I have Moli checked out aswell.

Re: Smelly breath


Bad breath is usually caused by bad teeth. My old boy, Ferdy had the most rotten breath and his teeth were bad

Re: Smelly breath


I've stopped giving her wet food and kept her to dry food and she doesn't seem to have really smelly breath now. It's still smelly but nowhere near as bad it was the other day.
