ProDen PlaqueOff Dental Bites Veggie Flavour for Cats - 60g

ProDen PlaqueOff Dental Bites Veggie for Cats is the same daily dental bite as the salmon pouch in a different flavour, and the reason to reach for it is a cat who will not take fish. The seaweed does the work either way.

Key Benefits

• A.N. ProDen seaweed - the active that carries through saliva rather than scrubbing, listed first on the panel.
• Veggie flavour - the green band on the front, and a useful alternative for a cat that has decided against salmon.
• Reducing plaque, preventing tartar, treating bad breath - the three ticks ProDen prints on every pack.
• Given like any other treat, which is the whole argument for bites over brushing.
• 60g resealable pouch.

What ProDen Says The Numbers Are

The brand's own trials, quoted on its packaging: a month of daily use giving 32 per cent less plaque, 35 per cent less tartar and 67 per cent less gingival bleeding, with the caveat that individual cats differ.

How Long Before Anything Changes

ProDen puts it at three to eight weeks. Plaque that has already hardened into tartar is a separate problem and a job for a vet with a scaler; what a dental bite is for is slowing down what forms next.

Good To Know

• The green band on the front reads Veggie, and that is a flavour name. ProDen does not print a vegetarian claim on the cat pouches, so we do not make one either.
• Not recommended for cats with hyperthyroidism, because seaweed is naturally high in iodine. Check with your vet if your cat has a thyroid condition.
• Neither cat pouch carries a VOHC seal, where the powder and the large dog tub do. Same seaweed; acceptance is applied for product by product.
• Cats who turn their noses up at fish sometimes take this one, which is the main reason to pick it over the salmon pouch.
