My mom is into that hippie crap and used to give the dog garlic in her food and have her wear a stupid pennyroyal collar until she got a really bad flea problem and now everyone (cats and dogs) get frontline monthly! And there's no fleas!

A lot of people here will say TD is a crappy food full of grains, and they're kind of right. TD is an OK food. We sell it at my clinic and we often recommend people give it as treats or something as it can make your pet kind of fat. I believe they coat the kibbles with something? We also sell various dental chews like these by CET that we recommend a lot. My cat had no loving clue how to eat them, but some of our veterinarian's cats love them. Re: Brushing their teeth. I saw this great video on how to get them started on it, but I can't find it. Basically it was a 4 step process. First step would be to get them used to the toothpaste, so for like a week you'll give the cat the toothpaste on your finger till he or she starts eating it regularly. Next step would be to put it on the tooth brush and let them eat it off of the toothbrush, and you can do that for a week. I think the third step was to get the cat used to having it in it's mouth? And 4th was basically that you should be able to brush (somewhat). I've found it'd worked a bit, but I'm really lazy about brushing my cat's teeth... Edit: This is the video! It's about 7 minutes long http://partnersah.vet.cornell.edu/pet-owners/cat-teeth/entire-video
