I'd freeze the bone broth in ice cube tray and then bag in freezer bags.

We absolutely LOVE Fera Pets! Their Probiotic & Prebiotic has made a huge difference in our one cat, Kaya! She has a lot of digestive issues and after going through six different probiotics that she wouldn't touch, we found Fera Pets! She doesn't throw up her meals literally ever anymore and she's been gaining weight again! I'd highly recommend it to anyone!

My vet recommended the Purina Fortiflora to help with loose stools. It worked effectively and after 3-4 days we were back to normal. Because of the high price, I only use it once a week when all is normal.

I also had the same issue, so I just used it up to add flavor and don't plan on buying it again :(

You put pastes and gels on the top of their paws or front of lower leg in a thin enough layer that they can not shake it off and must lick it off. Just like hairball pastes. Once you get in idea of how large a dab just apply it straight out of the tube. That one DOES like like a more fun option for the cat since it keeps them busy longer! My cats LOVE a salmon, flavored calming paste that I applied to their leg and paw….or counter.

@doomkitty63 4 ай бұрын

For fortiflora you should mix in with water then mix it with the food. It's supposed be beef flavour. To make the bone broth last longer I would pour it into an ice cube tray then freeze it. You can then just thaw out an ice cube when it's time for a dose.

My vet told us to divode the Purina Pro Plan FortiFlora with my cats meals. When he was younger we were told to use 1/2 a pack per day. Also, my cats have no problems eating it sprinkled on their dry food.

@marriadaniels2616 4 ай бұрын

The gel/paste I use with my 4 cats, and I just squeeze it out onto either my finger or their wet food, and they lick it right up. No mess!

@AllAboutCatsYT 3 ай бұрын

That's great! I'm glad to hear you've had a good experience with gel :)

@Richarmed 4 ай бұрын

I like pastes for my cat. I just squeeze a bit on my hand and she licks it off. I tried to have her eat wet food the other day and tried putting it on her paw, she shook that off and it landed on my kitchen wall. So, I'll keep to pastes 😅

@AllAboutCatsYT 3 ай бұрын

Pastes are definitely a great option!

@blackmoonroze9336 4 ай бұрын

I used the purina pro biotic one. What I did was dissolve it with a tablespoon of water and then add that to the wet food. Made it super easy to mix and my cat actually seemed to like its taste. I had more of an issue cos my cat hates to clean the bowl so it was a nightmare trying to feed all of the food so there is no powder left >.

Purina ProPlan is a bad probiotic. But because of the taste it's good as a topper!

Our cat cant eat wet food without getting the poops, so our vet gave us FortiFlora, and we mix half a pack in a small amount of water every night. He loves it, and no more poopies.

How long should a cat be on probiotics? Is there a general timeline? I was hoping to find out without having to pay for a vet visit. I know each cat is individual depending on their needs, but with the wide variety of probiotics available that aren't prescription, I'd like to find out if a cat should take it indefinitely or on a short term basis.

I haven't tried freezing, but that should work!

@kimatlastlooks2915 3 ай бұрын

If they like the paste, then perhaps a lick mat will work or as some have already suggested, just letting them lick it off a spoon or your finger. I love the Pet Honesty Hairball treats. My cat comes running when he hears this particular bag. We play games to get us through the 10/day. I'll have to take a look at the vitamin ones.

@theKoreis 4 ай бұрын

This review did not highlight or mention the efficacy of these products on your cat. Yes, it's great that the cat liked them or tolerated it but I came to find out if they worked (healthier coat, bones and joint improvement, gut regulated, etc). How long did you dedicate to each products and I am assuming you only did one at a time for cpl mos, to confirm that the results are due to one product with no overlap.

@AllAboutCatsYT 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for your comment! I will definitely try to keep efficacy more in mind for future reviews. I did try out each supplement on it's own, but most efficacy claims are difficult to test with only one cat without a proper randomized experiment setup (e.g. bone health, joint improvement, etc.), which is why I relied on vet advice for guidance. I will try to reference more studies though in the future or personal efficacy with Gordon if I can :)

I have the zesty paw salmon oil and I've neve found the smell to be a problem. I do have a problem with the pump that it comes with tho. I use it daily and have gone through about 1/4 of the 32oz bottle and the pump has started to get stuck. I tried taking it out to clean it but did not help. Now one pump is about 1/3 of the original pump and I could see it getting worse the more I use it. Two other supplement that I feed my cat and recommend is the Wild Acre Goat Milk Powder and Native Pet Vet Created Probiotic Powder.

My vet also gave me Fortiflora when my kitten had stomach issues. She LOVED it. I would just use a little hot water to dissolve it then pour it over her food like gravy.

Nope. Most vitamins are synthetic anyway. Add to that the treat styles (what ingredients I could make out on one of them) consist a good part of grain carbs and citric acid. Nope, nope, nope! I prefer to just spend more money on better quality food than split the same amount between mediocre food and vitamin/mineral mixes. What I have been doing? (and this is a work in progress) I've been feeding my two felines Nulo wet food because that is the best quality I've been able to find that they are willing to eat out of a can. As money permits I change that out with Dr. Marty's freeze-dried packages and the occasional Pure Bites freeze-dried whole herring that one cat likes. Both cats LOVE the Dr. Marty's. (I wish my wallet did as well. Hideously expensive, but I'm told so are vet bills.) Anyway, what I discovered is that during a couple of two-week periods when I had to confine the cats and found it convenient to only give Dr. Marty's and only once the dry food? Their eyes lost what I thought was a natural brown around the irises. Oh my God, the brilliance of the Tuxedo's yellow eyes while the elder Tabby's turned into pure turquoise. They looked like polished gemstones! I hated the idea of having to return to wet food at all, so now I compromise and give them as much of the freeze-dried as I can possibly get the money for. So my advice would be to skip the Pharmacy section and get the best quality food you can buy even if you can't afford to make that their only food.

Hey! Would you be able to discuss cat conditioner or lotion? We recently rescued three-week-old kittens and had to wash them due to fleas. Their fur feels a bit coarse, and we're looking for ways to make it softer.

@maddytedesco6084 4 ай бұрын

I’m kind of confused why cats need multivitamins. I get the other supplements. Multivitamins cover the bases so if you have gaps in your diet they can help fill them. But to be considered a cat food doesn’t it have to cover the bases? As humans we eat lots of stuff with little vitamins and minerals so I feel a multivitamin can make sense but all cat food has a balance of needed vitiman a and minerals?

She's go a lot of different looks. Hair up, hair down, glasses, no glasses. The "Clark Kent Effect." 2:40 - I bet you pay extra for the "sachets." 18:30 - With the Nutr-Vet gel, I agree it might be easier to put it on the *tops* of the cat's paws, so as not to track it all over the floor.
