my 4mo old kitten has very bad breath and breathes funny?
ive noticed recently that my kitten, Gizmo, has very bad breath..i (try) to brush her teeth but it’s still really bad..she also seems to breath loud, like she has a cold although its been going on for awhile now. ive had cats all my life and never had one that had bad breath and breathes weird.(the weird breathing doesnt seem to affect her, she still runs and plays right along with her sis with no problem) thanks!
Call your vet for an appointment. She might have the beginnings of an upper respiratory infection. If that’s the case, she’ll start sneezing or coughing, have a stuffed/runny nose, and might get a runny eye. It’s very easy to treat with oral antibiotics and eye ointment. But please contact your vet. They might even be able to give you some advice over the phone. If you don’t have a vet or can’t afford one, try a local shelter for some vet care. There’s one by me that has a clinic where you can take your animals for low cost veterinary care
Take her to the vet. She may be developing a respiratory problem or some other illness.
