Your cat may have some rotting teeth causing it pain. Cat's don't show their pain until it is very advanced.
Please. Take your cat to the vet and have its mouth checked.

Cat's breath is fine.
I can't stand people who always say (like it's some brilliantly astute advice) please take cat to vet. Sometimes I dont' bother even posting when that's the only response I get.
I DID change diet and diet DID have impact on cat breath. Also, my cats are <1year. They don't hve rotting teeth. PRactically all your diagnoses were completely innaccurate, irrelevant, and incorrect. I think what happened was less high quality cat food + getting some kind of cat-burp or indigestion.
The only I think I learned from this thread was that fluoride is poisionous to felines. Thanks for that bit at least.
Other than that, I think a lot of cat-owners need to stop advertising veterinarian checkouts (well I'm a bit of a doctor/med myself so maybe that's my my situation with my cats is different) as frequently. You'd think vets paid a lot of you people to post "Go see vet" to forums like this.
As to the person who posted "i don't see how diet could effect breath?" poor diet of low quality food means more odd unnatural ingredients ---> worse breath. pretty obvious. and a failure to see that correlation is decidedly disconcerting for your sake, but I don't care. I upgraded food quality and that helped considerably (in breath, and behaviour).
IN any any event. Bad kitty breath is solved.
