My cat is a big fan of chewing. Always has been, always will be. Started with electrical cords, tape, and a bunch of other dangerous stuff. I now buy her pigs ears and tiny bully sticks. Seems to do the trick.
Recently caught her chewing my toothbrush.
First thought: ew, need to buy a new one.
Second thought: maybe this is good for her, it's like brushing, but do it herself. Gotta be good for her gum health.
Third thought: what if she chews off shreds of plastic and bristles. Maybe this is a bad thing.
Thoughts?
I know people often brush cats/dogs teeth, but they don't usually leave it out as a chew toy....
BTW: she's raw fed and loves meaty bones, has the jaw strength to do damage to the tooth brush over time I'd think....
While I'm here, any other suggestions for cat chews? She did not take to the cat Kong. She wants to EAT the chew, not lick it.
