Cat won't brush her teeth anymore?

My cat always used to love when I brushed her teeth with a baby toothbrush dipped in tuna juice. I've done this about 1-2x every other week since I adopted her, about 8 months ago as a kitten. Sometimes, she'd even take the brush in her arms %26amp; do it herself! Recently, Ive been trying %26amp; she wont let me anymore. She'll lick the juice off %26amp; then go away as soon as I do the brushing motion. I even make a game out of it %26amp; treat the brush like A toy, but it doesn't help....What would make her stop enjoying this, as she alway has?

Cat won't brush her teeth anymore?
Perhaps her gums are bothering her, and the last time you brushed her teeth it hurt her. Take her to the vet for a routine check-up and have them check her teeth and gums. She'll thank you if there is something wrong, and if not, then she is just being tempermental, which is all to common for cats!!! :)
