The cause of bad breath in kittens needs to be found first and then treated symptomatically. First of all, if the bad breath is caused by the kitten’s 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 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, vitamin B needs to be supplemented 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. After the gastrointestinal problem is resolved, the kitten will not have bad breath.

2. Brush the kitten’s teeth regularly

If a kitten eats meat food for a long time and does not brush its teeth regularly, it will form dental plaque or dental calculus over time. This will not only cause bad breath, but also cause gingivitis, stomatitis, and tooth decay in the kitten. The appearance of drool and other conditions. 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 oral cavity.

If a cat with serious dental calculus needs to go to a pet hospital for examination, ultrasonic cleaning and dental treatment, and post-stage anti-inflammatory care, good oral hygiene can also prevent loose teeth, gum bleeding, apical abscess, 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 make the kitten unwilling to eat due to pain. Regarding this situation, it is recommended to supplement the kitten with an appropriate amount of pet-specific vitamin B to improve the resistance of the oral mucosa.
