Excellent product. Many uses for your fur baby.
My husband and I have 5 rescues, our oldest was recently diagnosed with renal failure and our youngest has a very sensitive stomach. We mix a little into soft food on a regular basis. It smells just like chicken bouillon and I'm guessing that is what entices my oldest to eat (for her we use it to get her to eat more do she gets enough calories). It's also solved a lot of the sensitive stomach issues for our youngest. We don't use a whole packet per day, just a little sprinkle in with some soft food or on top of some very low sodium tuna (Starkist brand - about 2 tablespoons). Our vet was kind enough to let us sample it at first, now we buy it by the box.

MIRACLE POWDER
I was at my witts end until my vet suggested this to me after a 3rd visit with my 3 legged fluffa - who happens to be a maine coon cat with long hair. Due to his hind leg being gone he has trouble burying his stuff. He had had loose stools ever since i found him which was getting worse. Within 2 to 3 feedings his stools returned to normal. This was such a god send- trying to clean his bottom and furr was very unpleasant. It has no smell and is much less stressful on the pet than trying to get a pill down. Highly suggest this.

Keeping Pup Healthy
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 90 Chewable TabletsOur vet recommended Fortiflora for our pup's gut health, she has some allergies and a sensitive tummy. We drop a chewable in her food once a day and she gobbles it right up! Glad this comes in a 90 tab supply so we don't have to order very frequently. #sweepstakes -
Great Product for My Dog's Gut Health
From Chicago IllinoisComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsMy dog has a delicate gut. He is allergic to chicken. He always suffered from stomach aches. He would lean forward like a vulture and pace around. My vet suggested this product and he is feeling so much better. He is perky again and he doesn't have that bloat which was visual. He is so happy now and so am I. It's hard to know when your dog does not feel good. They can't tell you. You really have to watch their behavior. I am so happy with this product. -
Highly recommend!

Keeps Kit Kats gut healthy during antibiotic tx
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 30 SachetsI purchased FortiFlora after an ER vet prescribed two types of antibiotics for an aggressive bacteria that Kit Kat will need to take for months. This was meant to help prevent damage to her gut while she is on these antibiotics. I haven't found a regular vet yet and was looking for a refill when we were running out. Found this on VetRx direct for a great price. Kit Kat actually enjoys the flavor and looks forward to having this sprinkled in her food. Received this product in good condition and it doesn't expire anytime soon. Since I've discovered VetRx, I've ordered a few other things too. -
Good stuff
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 12 SachetsHappy seems to like it. Not as enthusiastic as he was when he first tried it, but he's just like that. I think I'll probably still give him his fluids occasionally, because he doesn't always finish the whole pouch, but I'm glad to have it for him. -
Helped!
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 45 Chewable TabletsMy vet recommended this probiotic because my dog was having a lot of digestive issues. I have had her on it for months now and not only have her toots been less offensive (if you have a Frenchie you know how bad they can be) but we have had normal tummy function and stools! -

Works
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 30 SachetsI have a French Bulldog, and anyone who owns one knows they are little hoover machines and like to eat anything and everything. We were having some gut issues with her and my Veterinarian recommended putting her on this probiotic. She's been on it for about 6 months and safe to say our gut problems are down to just here and there! She also loves the taste!

Hello, I have been reading up on giving cats with suppressed immune systems probiotics and most say you should not. It also says the same with humans. My vet told me to give it, but I think her immune system is compromised due to long term use of prednisolone (due to intestinal cancer) since she now has what seems to be a cold. I think I am probably making matters worse. What is your opinion? Now I have no idea what to give her for diarrhea. Thank you.?
