A blessing for my cat!
This product was recommended by an emergency veterinarian when my cat who has either irritable bowel disease or lymphoma stopped eating for about five days. After some fluids & baby food they started her on this which she promptly gobbled up and continues to gobble up. She is on prednisolone for the inflammation in her bowels, which seems to be working, but she developed three days of diarrhea from the side effects of the medication. She still continued to eat, but I could tell she was getting weary and was having diarrhea almost every two hours. I was afraid she was getting dehydrated. I spoke with my vet and got her a probiotic, and I had two containers of the Churu Veterinarian packets that came. I basically let her have as many packets as she wanted for the first 24 hours.Not only is the tapioca in there good for people who have irritable bowel disease, and to curb diarrhea, it is less solid than other wet cat foods, ie more moisture. She is getting more fluids. Within 24 hours she turned around. But I would really like to point out the excellent, excellent customer service from this organization! The original order that I put in appeared to have been lost and Vet RX Direct promptly answered an inquiring email that I had sent and were able to help me get another order out immediately! I will definitely continue to use them for my future Veterinarian needs. Their prices are also competitive. A special shout out to Grayson, the customer service representative, who I dialogue with in a couple of emails. He was very understanding and very professional! This company was recommended to me by my personal Veterinarian.

They sent me Churu that's about to expire...
I normally buy this on other sites this is my first time here. I went ahead and purchased 2 jars of these. A month later I notice they are about to expire. When I have ordered these in the past they have months if not a year. Not 1 month. Had I known I wouldn't have purchased 100.... waste of money. Not mad at product mad at vetrxdirect. Beware when buying alot.

The Best Churu Out There
From UndisclosedComments about Churu Veterinarian Formula 50 Nourish TubesWhether it's as an appetite stimulant (for our cats who have been underweight or suffering from digestive issues) or just as a treat / medication delivery aid, these particular Churu tubes have been amazing. We order them exclusively here, and have probably gone through 20+ containers over the years -- can't recommend them highly enough!-
Fizzgig's favorite! In moderation, helped to maximize his appetite to get him into a healthy weight range.

A love of Churus will extend my cat's life!
From UndisclosedComments about Churu Veterinarian Formula 50 Nourish TubesThanks to Churus, my cat will take his meds to slow down renal disease. He loved Churus before and luckily still loves them - but now he's gets one at breakfast and dinner. As he is insanely picky, I am thrilled that he devours the Churu and the powdered medicine.-
Carson does not love having his picture taken!

Q & A

My 12 year old house cat needs her teeth cleaned, but the vet is booked out 3 weeks. She can't chew solid food, as her teeth hurt. Is it safe to feed her only Churu Nourish veterinarian formula instead of cat food for 3 weeks??
-
Churu is intended for intermittent or supplemental feeding only. It is not labeled as a standalone product to provide complete nourishment and is not intended to replace a regular diet. Please consult with your veterinarian regarding the best diet for your cat's needs.

Is there any fish or scallop flavoring in the Churu Chicken Veterinarian formula??
-
According to the package labeling, Churu Veterinarian Formula’s chicken recipe ingredients do not list any fish or scallop flavorings. The manufacturer lists that some Churu chicken contains natural scallop flavoring to “enhance palatability.” The chicken recipe also contains taurine which may be derived from fish. If your pet has a seafood allergy, please consult your veterinarian regarding any further questions or concerns with using this product in your cat or dog.

I'm trying to entice a feral cat into a Live Trap Cage so I can bring her into the house and get her acclimated to indoor living.. I have been feeding her for about two months. The first Life Trap Cage was apparently defective and would not trip when she went in to eat her food. I ordered a smaller one because she is a smaller cat, thinking that she didn't weigh enough to trip the original trap. She is so stubborn, she will not eat any food in the trap. With the weather so cold, I didn't want her to go hungry, so I feed her outside of the trap. I am hoping that this Churu will entice her into the Live Trap. Do I need a Vet RX to get? If so, is there a non RX version I can purchase instead??

What is the difference between Churu Nourish Veterinarian Formula and Churu non veterinarian formula? And are they both intended as appetite stimulators or is there a specific ingredient in the veterinarian formula that entices a cat to eat? Thank you.?
-
According to the manufacturer, the Churu Veterinarian Formula, Churu Nourish, contains 12 kcal/tube while the non-veterinarian formula contains 6 kcal/tube. Both products may stimulate your cat's appetite. Churu entices cats to eat with its strong smell and palatable chicken and tuna flavors.
