"Someone else on PT was talking about a solution that they had to brush over the surface of their cat's teeth - kind of like just soaking a q tip and drawing over the tooth surface. I wonder if that would work for Puddy it an anesthetic cleaning is not an option?"

Catty1, that was me. It's C.E.T. Oral Hygiene Rinse For Cats & Dogs. I don't know how much it would help on an animal with severe gingivitis and bad teeth though. It will help prevent plaque and tartar from forming and will also help reduce bad breath. Storm had a dental cleaning and 2 small teeth removed in early May and I'm now using this on him every night so hopefully this will help his teeth and gums to stay healthy. I'm also trying to use it on my other cats when I can.
I'm going to ask my vet about it anyhow. I may be able to use it on my other cats. Pidge has never had a vet visit for anything other than checkups. She's never sick and has had her teeth cleaned but none were ever pulled. My Boo is the same way and he's 16 1/2. So if I can prevent problems at this stage, it's worth it, except that my seniors get so stressed now if I groom them or pill them. (Boo is on Clomicalm and that's it.) I'm still going to ask, though.
