Best Cat Toothbrush for 2020

Cat’s don’t particularly like getting their teeth brushed, but the earlier you introduce them to having their mouths touched, the quicker and less troublesome the experience will be for the both of you!

This Hatch Wells Toothbrush Kit is perfect for getting kittens used to the process, providing you and your little furball with an effective soft rubber finger brush and an appetising meat flavoured toothpaste.

The soft rubber is gentle and flexible, meaning there’s no risk of catching or hurting your cat, while the toothpaste also contains extra calcium to help strengthen their ferocious little cat fangs!

To use, simply massage the toothpaste against the teeth and gums area with your finger brush, taking care to give each individual tooth a good brush!

So if you’ve got a kitten, trust us and start brushing now, as you’ll have a much harder time convincing a fully grown adult cat that they’re in need of a floss!

Just like our human models, cat toothbrushes tend not to stand the test of time, especially given the fact they have much softer bristles than our own.

It can, therefore, be smarter to sometimes purchase cat toothbrushes in bulk or at the very least go for a slightly cheaper option to avoid wasting your money.

Thankfully, this four brush pack from Trixie allows you to do both, providing four high quality and durable brushes which will save you money as well as time browsing for the best cat toothbrushes every few months. Each toothbrush also has a small head design, designed to tackle a cat’s front and back teeth without causing them too much discomfort and obstructing their mouths.

Their soft bristles probably won’t remove plaque as effectively as other models, but if you’re simply looking to keep on top of your cat’s oral care on a discount – you’ve found the brushes for you!

If you are venturing into the world of moggy mouth brushing for the first time, it might make sense to go for an all in one package which has everything you need to implement effective oral care.

This kit from Trixie is probably your best bet, featuring three different brush head sizes and a toothpaste that will have plaque running scared before you even attempt to clean your cat’s teeth!

The range of brush head sizes means you can find a toothbrush best suited to your cat’s individual mouth, giving you the best chance of fighting gum disease without causing you kitty distress or discomfort. You could even mix and match too, utilising the long double-sided brush to reach those pesky back teeth, and your standard brush to give the front ones a nice polish.

Admittedly the included toothpaste’s cheese flavour is a bit of an odd choice, and so there is a risk your cat may not like it.

However based on the selection of toothbrushes alone, this kit is more than worth it!

Although not strictly an actual toothbrush, this catnip toy from SEGMINISMART is an easy way to encourage your kitty to partake in some self-cleaning activities, which is brilliant if you find it a struggle to get anywhere near their mouths.

Coming in the shape of a fish, this long, slender silicone item is covered with rubber nubs, providing friction and abrasion which when chewed by cats helps to remove their teeth tartar and plaque! The soft grade silicone material is also 100% safe and promises a high-quality, bite-resistant and durable toy which could help you keep a kitty’s pearly whites healthy for a very long time.

It can also be opened and stuffed full of catnip to ensure your kitty is suitably enticed by their new toy, actively stimulating a desire to chew. This means you never have to actively do any brushing of your own yet can still help your cat get a thorough teeth scaling and fresher, less fishy breath!

Contrasting heavily from the rubber or plastic finger brushes we’re used to seeing on the market, this innovative teeth cleaning item from Bogar promises the same if not better results through the use of a fibrous finger glove!

The Bogadent Anti-Plaque Finger is composed of over 20,000 microfibres, which have all been coated with silver-ions. While that might not mean anything to you just yet, silver-ions are a technology which allow a sustained release of antibacterial effects over a long period of time, which is fantastic news for your cat’s dental hygiene!

A polymer coating on each fibre also enhances the durability and activity of these silver-ions, while the microfibres themselves provide an abrasive quality to the finger glove, perfect for the mechanical removal of plaque!

It fits any finger and can be washed and reused, it’s effectiveness lasting a phenomenal eight weeks.

So forget other finger brushes, because if you want your kitty smiling like a Cheshire cat, it’s the finger glove which is now the hottest teeth cleaner in town!
