Absolute staple!
From UndisclosedComments about EmerAid Intensive Care Carnivore 400g PowderI run a hedgehog rescue and EmerAid Carnivore Care, mixed with the EmerAid Omnivore Care, is an absolute staple. Great for recovering, special needs, or elderly hedgehogs to make sure they're able to get the proper nutrition and maintain or add on weight. I greatly appreciate Vet RX Direct's quick shipping as well!-
Strega and Tiggy love their Om-nom-nivore care!

Helped my ferret eat again and gain some weight
From UndisclosedComments about EmerAid Intensive Care Carnivore 400g PowderMy Ferret Fresh is a truly picky eater. EmerAid Carnivore is the only other food he eats. After talking with my vet, we decided to give him this as a little treat from time to time, so he stays accustomed to the taste. He is now an old boy and just in case he gets sick...there is another food he has.-

Can I still use this product, if I didn't have it sitting in the refrigerator??

According to the manufacturer, EmerAid Intensive Care Carnivore does not contain preservatives, so it must be refrigerated after the package is opened because it is susceptible to bacteria growth. Unfortunately, it is recommended to discard any opened package that was not stored at refrigerator temperatures due to product spoilage.

How come this product isn't able to be put on an auto-subscription order like other prescription products? I'm just wondering because it's really hard to have to keep reordering whenever I run out and I'd love to be able to have it order automatically so I never have to worry about running out. Will this product ever be added to that??
-
Unfortunately, at this time, we do not offer an auto-delivery program for prescription medications.

Hi I got some of this recently and when I opened the bag the product was quite clumpy, is that normal??
-
According to the manufacturer, it is normal for Emeraid Intensive Care Carnivore to have the texture of wet sand or even Play-Doh because of the oils in the powder.
