I was just wondering, what is a cat's breath supposed to smell like?
I noticed today that Chezz's breath is kind of smelly and when I looked that up on google today, some post had said that was a sign of gum disease or haliotosis. ):
I was also wondering (since I've read this before on CW), what part/s of a chicken do you give to a cat so they can chew on it & something about how it's good for their teeth?

Thanks (:

Check your cats gums. If they are red, this is a sign of gingivitus. This means a Vet visit. Your cat would probably need a clean & scale. If left unchecked, gingivitus can lead to kidney disease.

Chicken necks & wings or a dental biscuit will help keep his teeth clean after they have been attended to.
