Most cat toothbrushes are too big for Tibbe's little mouth. Only the one's from Canine Commissary in Dallas are tiny enough for him. The other cat brushes I've seen are too big. I just use whatever pet toothpaste I find in the pet store - he like it all the same. I brush very gently mindful of the inside tender areas of his mouth & in case he might have developed a tender spot from chewing on something. Sometimes I let him up & run around before finishing the job. Whatever it takes to get a good brushing in without hurting him.
