When we adopted out 7 month old kitten she came with some health issues, including stomatitis. On the recommendation of our vet I began brushing her teeth every night with Virbac poultry flavored toothpaste and the toothbrush from a different dental cat kit.

It took a bit but I finally found what worked was just letting her chew on the toothbrush, which meant the brush didn't last long. When I went to the pet store all I could find was the dental kit I had previously purchased which included a brush and a tube of toothpaste our cat hated... but I needed another brush asap, so I just got it. It was a waste to have to keep buying the tubes of paste that would never get used so I started looking at baby brushes and other specialty cat toothbrushes.

I tried a very expensive brush with a tiny round head on one end, and a sort of pick on the other, but she chewed through that within days. Since she chews more than "brushes" I also felt like the head of the brush was too small to properly clean her teeth, so buying any of the cheaper versions of that brush were a no-go.

Finally I found these. I was worried the head would be too big since our cat (even now that's she's full grown) is rather small, but they are the perfect size. The bristles on these are actually softer than the previous brush I used, but not too soft that it won't clean off tartar. Best of all, even after letting her gnaw on it the past week the brush is in great condition, where the last brush would already start looking a little rough by now.

All of that, plus the fact that it comes in an 8 pack for about the same price I was paying for one brush and a tube of paste I will never use!

Once I've used these brushes a little longer I'll upload some pics of the used brush alongside pics of the other used brush to show how they compare after heavy use. But for now, I'm very satisfied and highly recommend these brushes.

I have XS dogs. One is 6lbs and the other is 10lbs. Their mouths are so tiny so these tooth brushes have worked really well so far. I recommend. I like how they come in a pack because my dogs bite on the tooth brush and it can wear out the brush.

I brush my dogs teeth often and made the mistake of leaving his toothbrush out once. Needless to say, he chewed the bristle end up! When looking to replace it, I saw these! They were the right size for my terrier mix and there were lots of them! I figured this was the best choice just in case he manages to grab another that I accidentally leave out. They are easy to use and fit nicely in his mouth. They reach his back teeth nicely and are easy to maneuver to brush the inner side of his teeth as well.

These tooth brushes are better than other brands, but still to big for my cat's mouth.
I hope they have something smaller designed for cats.

We had tried various sizes and styles of toothbrushes for our small breed dogs, and these minis have worked pretty well. Having two different colors is convenient for telling them apart. The brush head is small enough to fit but large enough to still be effective (sometimes with the really tiny brushes it can be extra work). Of course it helps if the dogs cooperate. The handle is also a manageable size and personally I prefer these to the double-edged versions. After a while they do show signs of where, so it's nice that there are so many in each pack.
