Does this product contain electrolytes? Believe it or not - I want to give it to my cat who gets dehydrated when I travel with her by plane.

Assuming the question is genuine:) Package says "jam-packed with naturally occurring electrolytes", "more potassium than a banana (don't tell this to monkeys)-potassium helps keep your body properly hydrated", "no fat and no cholesterol (means big hearts & small butts)", "100% natural" Also the pack is handy and convenient to carry during travel.

I thought I better update. I checked the newest bottle, and boric acid is still in the product, but it is not the number 1 ingredient. I would still exercise caution in using it where an animal can lick, but my old dog gets a raw fanny every now and again, and the product works well. I do not use it on any part where she can lick, and I do not use it on my cats.

I would imagine the dosage may be incorrect for a cat when using a product intended for humans. One gel cap of Welactin is a perfect dosage for my cats and evidently they have enhanced the flavor so cats will tolerate it. They seem to find it quite palatable and it has made a considerable difference in the shine of their coats and their stools are now somewhat softer. Since they had only ever eaten dry food, they refused canned food when I offered it to them when first attempting to add omega 3 through their food. This product has worked out to be a great solution for us.

I've been using the ionic potassium w my cat who can't tolerate oral potassium (creates ulcers). According to his bloodwork, the ionic potassium is not measured in mEq. I have to give 60 drops/day (he's on lasix) of the Ultra Ionic Potassium to keep him w/n range. For every 10 drops=50mg K which is 300mg K per day. That would be an exceptional amount of K/day for a cat if it were measured mEq.I hope this helps. I have conversion charts but wanted to answer this quickly- conversion charts are online.

The best thing is to go to your local pet supply store and find out. I don't know if there is a separate cat formula. Sorry I couldn't be more informative.

I give my cat a half scoop of this product that I also give my dogs. They do make a "cat" formula with a different flavor that is supposed to be more tempting to cats, but mine has no problem eating this one and it's cheaper.

I bought this at the suggestion of my Vet. My cat had started sneezing (which can be a symptom of respiratory infection or fox tail in nose). After she determined neither of those, she told me cats can sneeze when stressed and that a small amount of human l-lysine would help. Well, I could not find capsules to empty so went to Amazon, my real "go to" source for so many things. Lo and behold they had this product. I have reordered 3 times and give 2 "treats" to my cat every morning. She loves them and .......the sneezing is gone! Recommend this product

No. This product is a very, very fine powder and I sprinkle about 1/8th teaspoon on their dry breakfast food and then mix it with my fingers to get a dispersed coating on all their food pieces. I also put the same amount on their dinner food. I have to say that our two cats are very picky about their food, and this never posed a problem for them, not even the first time we used it. Truly love this product...I feel that I am doing something very good for my cats.

No idea. My cat likes all the flavors and his teeth and breath are much improved after just a couple of months. He is not a candidate for a teeth cleaning due to his age(14)and health(insulin dependent diabetic.He is on a prescription diet and "begs"(with a claw) people food. I decided that it would be better to give him something more beneficial than people meat.I NOW just get the hairball formula since he was constantly wanting more & more. He has never liked any treats before this. He is a grazer and never has gained any weight before. Now I think we're going to be in trouble when we go to the vet. That's why I cut back to the hairball kind & count how many I put in his dish. He LOVES them!!! No idea.

I am not sure either, but it says it contains baking soda, citric acid, oxidizes, and "cleaning surfactants," whatever they are. I use with nature's cleaning miracle also. Have a large rescue cat that has taken time to own the territory. She has always lived alone and I used to have several cats at a time. They never marked but I am sure you knew they used to live here. Plus, I have the largest litter box I could find and the dear still hangs over the edge at times.

Active ingredients: Thiamine (Vitamin B1), L-Theanine, and Colostrum Calming Complex....whatever that is. "Safe use in pregnant animals or animals intended for breeding have not been proven" it says, so I would not recommend it for those. Getting them to eat them is the trick. My cats are not picky eaters, but they wouldn't touch these calming chews, or the daily vitamins, the UT care, or the Hairball formula chews, or the Flea Away chews I got them (Flea Away was from somewhere else.) I wasted a lot of money, and now I don't know what to do with all these packets of chews, most of which are un-opened. Wish I had only ordered one packet of each!~ Live and learn. But maybe yours would eat them, or you could grind them up and mix them in with wet cat food, maybe??

Not sure about cats, depends on what the "sick" symptoms were? And the reason for giving the supplement? My dog takes it with no problems and has cured her chronic bronchitis

Thomas, our bottle says it contains no alcohol, chlorhexidine, or xylitol. "Ingredients: Glucose Oxidase, Glycerin, Potassium Sorbate, Postassium Thiocyanate, Purified Water, Rosemary Extract, Sodium Chloride, Sorbitol, Zinc Chloride" (In bold print the following: "Natural Enzymes, Dextranase, Lactoferrin, Lactoperoxidase, Lysozyme, Mutanase." In that order. I hope this helps in your decision. We notice that our cat likes 32 oz bottled water with two pumps of this daily and that his gums are better. This is vital for us because he cannot undergo anesthesia due to a heart condition. Best wishes to you and yours. Thomas, our bottle says it contains no alcohol, chlorhexidine, or xylitol.

Hello - I returned this item. You are correct about there being little medication in the vials. Also, It did not work on my cats. :(

Yes it is "Enzymatic". The attached www will give you all the ingredients. If you require additional "specifics", you may have to contact the manufacture. The product works, only if you use it. I DE-plaque my cats mouth twice per day, also use the dental additive in her water fountain and also the dental wipes. We use a small child's SOFT brush and store it in a toothbrush sanitizer after each use. We also change her bush monthly, due to her wanting to chew the brush. Hope this helps you. http://www.1800petmeds.com/product.jsp?id=prod10593&sku=11054?AFFID=MS&ID=1082123976&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=bingads&utm_content=bing_plas

looked at pkg. no ref to feline or cats anywhere. only dogs. guessing not for cats or they would be marketing them that way as it would increase their sales. must be wrong 'other ingredients' for feline digestion. also, the treats are bisquit like texture and quite large so cats may find quite Unappealing.

Hi Suzanne - I haven't used it in water as I think it would dilute it too much as someone else said. I think putting a few drops on soft treats is a better option and has proven effective with my cats.
