Solutions to eight-month-old cat’s bad breath:

1. Bad breath caused by diet. If your cat often eats soft food such as meat or canned food, it will easily remain in the mouth and breed bacteria, causing bad breath. Therefore, the owner should adjust the cat's diet, focusing on cat food, not always eating soft food, and brushing the cat's teeth frequently.

2. Bad breath caused by dental calculus. You can feed your cat teeth grinding products or medicines that can dissolve dental calculus. If your cat has severe dental calculus, you can take your cat to a pet hospital for teeth cleaning.

3. Bad breath caused by oral ulcers. Feed the cat antibiotics to treat inflammation, flush the affected area with saline every day, and spray the affected area with medicine to treat ulcers.

4. Bad breath caused by indigestion. Constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, food accumulation, etc. caused by indigestion in cats can cause bad breath in cats. You can feed some probiotics to regulate the cat’s gastrointestinal tract and promote digestion.

5. When a cat lacks vitamin B, it will affect the cat’s digestion and absorption, and may also lead to oral diseases in the cat, causing bad breath. Therefore, you should make your cat drink more water, exercise more, and pay attention to supplement vitamin B, which can promote metabolism and effectively relieve the cat’s bad breath.
