That is the most adorable picture I've ever seen! I bet the person with the "stinky breath" cat would love your problem. Maybe you could get her into commercials for feline dental hygiene.

Glad my cat is not the only one by: Anonymous
My cat, Lavender, does the same thing. She watches me brush my teeth with a lot of interest. Then, if I leave my toothbrush on the counter instead of putting it up in the cabinet, she'll grab it and chew it.
She'll even hold it down on the counter and run her mouth across it like brushing! Too funny. The mint idea sounds like a good explanation.

cat who thinks she is a dentist by: Anonymous
That is a very cute picture of your cat. I think the reason she loves the toothpaste so much is because cats in general are very fond of catnip, which is from the mint family. If your toothpaste is mint flavored, then it may be that it reminds her of that same smell.
