How often do you think about your cat’s teeth? I must admit I don’t as often as I probably should but a cat’s dental health is very important. Like with humans, cats’ teeth develop plaque and that plaque builds up into tartar which can then cause periodontal disease which can lead to tooth loss.

This is where a tasty cat treat like Meow Mix Brushing Bites can help. They are designed to help stop the build up of icky plaque and tartar on your cats’ teeth. Judging by my cats’ reactions they also taste good so that makes it easy to deliver a “good for you” treat to your furry feline friends.

Harry, Sherpa and Stinky the Farm cats love treats – I’m not going to lie. But I must admit that they are usually a little bit reticent about trying new ones. They sniff, they lick, they poke at them with their paws and they look at me  like I have two heads but I have to say that when I put the Brushing Bites down they gobbled them right up, even Pumpkin the Farm cat. He doesn’t generally eat any treat I give him but he was most enthusiastic about the Meow Mix Brushing Bites. (Pumpkin is very shy and a bit tricky for me to get on camera so please forgive his hidey-hole picture and video.)

Meow Mix Brushing Bites are made with real chicken and salmon and they are fortified with calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones and teeth.

Harry the Farm cat is most in favor of strong teeth. He is the resident gopher hunter on the farm and he needs strong teeth to erm…..well, you get the idea. I will remark that the garden didn’t have as much damage from the evil little rodents this year so Harry has been On.The.Job!

Are you aware that 85% of cats show signs of oral disease by the age of three? Stinky the Farm cat is one of those cats. We found her in a campground during our travels in our fifthwheel. We had no idea how old she was only that she had been mistreated. We took her in and have been caring for her for the last 14 years.

Sadly Stinky has lost most of her teeth, although it doesn’t stop her from much; you should see her rip apart a shrimp! I do wish I had been her human earlier in her life so that she would have had better oral health care from the start. I will note that even with only a couple of teeth Stinky ate the Meow Mix Brushing Bites with enthusiasm.

It’s important to know that there are four stages of feline periodontal disease so it’s wise to visit your vet on a regular basis. Meow Mix Brushing Bites can help, but no treat can take the place of regular veterinary care. I know that Sherpa far prefers eating treats to visiting the doctor! If I give him a treat like Brushing Bites it can certainly help keep him from having to undergo costly dental procedures.

You can see from this video just how much the Farm cats enjoyed their new Brushing Bites treats. Silly Pumpkin – no matter what I did he would not come out from behind the deck chair.

The product can be found at your local Walmart and will also be available on Walmart.com soon. For now, you can find out more about Meow Mix Brushing Bites here

I found the Meow Mix Brushing Bites on my last trip to Walmart. They were easy to find in the cat food aisle and as you can see they are not at all hard on the budget. I picked up both the chicken and the salmon flavor and they have been equally gobbled by my little clowder.

How about your kitty? Are you looking to help maintain your cat’s dental health? Well why not head out and pick up some new Meow Mix Brushing Bites? Your cat’s teeth (and their taste buds) will thank you!

What flavor of Meow Mix Brushing Bites do you think your cat will like best – chicken or salmon?
