She was chewing one at last!  :evillaugh:

I got the camera out but she stopped. She has another go around the 1min mark  :Luv2:

I bought some for a friend's kitten a while back are they the ones you can freeze or are they different? these can be used for teething.
Please consider the harder to home cats in rescue.

I think if I had kittens, Id try this from the onset, though, along with claw trimming and geting used to be manhandled ;)

Cor JO Ripley would have your hand off if you tried that on him  :rofl:

Mine havent shown any interest in these - well, they've shown interest in playing with them, but not in chewing them, so no dental benefit, but interesting toys LOL!  :evillaugh: Reckon if it isnt food they're not gonna chew!

I tried some dental chews very similar to those years ago, but Trigger wasn't interested - and I couldn't blame him as the consistency was like polystyrene and they smelt of seaweed


vets make a lot of money out of doing dentals, so the cynic in me suggests an at home treatment is a long way off

Once and once only have I brushed a cats teeth ......  this was a friends cat, while I was looking after him while she was away. 

Allegedly, Puss was used to it and would be no problem .... :shify:

Twasn't quite the case - I have to say he was certainly in need of dental attention because his breath could have stripped paint. :sick:

The good thing was that when she came back, Puss got his dental visit to the vet  ;)

They have some new American toys. One of them is a little xhew thing that has catnip stalks inside and the outside is a kind of nylon netting which is supposed to clean their teeth. I bought a pack today (2 for £1.99) but haven't tried them yet (They are all asleep  :Luv2: )
