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.

Didn't do much for my cat
My kitten of 6 month has been having diarrhea ever since I got him, my vet suggests that the food he was on was too rich and he has a very sensitive tummy. So we tried switching his food to a vet recommended special diet and added fortiflora to his food everyday. He didn't seem to improve much, his diarrhea was still runny its been 2 weeks. The first thing in the ingredients is animal digest, I understand it's probably there to promote eating, but I'm not sure if that's helping with my kitten who's suppose to be on a very strict diet. One thing that baffled me was that this only had one strain of bacteria, and there was no guaranteed analysis of how much bacteria culture is in each pouch. I'm not giving this product a negative review solely because it didn't help my cat, there might be other underlying problems, but I'm just very disappointed that a product suggested by a vet was this low of quality. Now I won't know if probiotics is not helping because my cat has some other health problem or if it's because there's not enough bacteria culture in fortiflora (since I have no idea how much there is) and not enough variety.

From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsMy dog has a autoimmune disorder that effected his skin! Very rare! He is currently taking Atopica which can cause stomach issues. Even though he is only taking one tablet a week now his vet suggests that we keep him on the FortiFlora! It works superb! So easy to use with his food. Each morning he gets it with his kibble! He is doing fantastic and skin is great! His tummy is happy! Stools are normal and he rarely has any vomiting! So happy VetRxDirect has it available to purchase!-

Big fan of VetRxDirect
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsThis product really is helpful for stopping diarrhea in my cat, and because my vet has advised that the next step in treatment is possibly a steroid, which I would like to avoid for as long as possible, I am glad to have found a product that is effective. And at a such a reasonable price, with a shipping break at that! from VetRxDirect. Wonderful company, can't say enough about them. Glad I found them. -

Best thing you can give your dog!
From undisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsYour dog needs this if he/she has diarrhea, very soft stools, excessive gas and your vet has examined the dog and cleared him/her of other health problems. If antibiotics, dietary changes, stress, persistent and periodic digestive issues are making you and your pet miserable, try this product for 30 days. You will soon know if this product will help your dog or not. Stop changing dog food every week according to what's on sale and give the dog a chance to adjust to some good pet food and daily FortiFlora mixed with the food. You and your dog will be glad you did. -
Been using this for a while
From Los Angeles, CAComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsWe've been using this along with some other medications to keep my dog's IBD at bay. Seems to be helping and I am thankful because she was very sick for a long time. -
Excellent product
From Aliquippa, Pa.Comments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsMy 2 yr. old dog always seemed to have looser bowels, and this seems to help that, and my older dog started licking her butt constantly and them licking the spot where she had laid. I was really starting to worry, so I started her on it too, and guess what, it really worked on her and she doesn't do it anymore. Thank goodness! It worked on her right away. -

The only.. The Best!
From Palm Beach Gardens, FL, USAComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI tried everything to get my cat to stop having smelly stools and diarrhea. FortiFlora helped immediately. But, when I thought it was safe to stop, within 2 days my cat had the same terrible symptoms. I started again, and the next day, his sools were firm and normal looking. FortiFlora saved the day and I will be a longtime user of this great and safe product! BTW, it also acts as a stimulant for cats that are picky about eating. I add a small amount to my other cat's food and he eats so much more now!! ONLY FEED CATS WET FOOD!!! I never new dry food was really bad for the animals. Trust me! -
our vet recommened fortiflora
From MidwestComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Catsto help our dog's acute colitis....and we get good results with it (along with her medication). We've tried other probiotics, but this one seems to work the best and gives us the longest results. VetRX had the best price and promptly replaced our order when the local post office misdelivered it. -
Really makes a difference!
From MinnesotaComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI have a cat on a special diet for a sensitive stomach. I have used Forta Flora on her food for about 4 years. I really believe it helps calm her stomach. Plus she loves athe taste of it. Vetrxdirect has a good price and I buy it three boxes at a time.

Calming Care by Purina for CATS! I'nm looking for those reviews, not reviews about the product for dogs. Any cat people out there trued this on your cat??
-
Is Hydra Care safe for a cat with kidney disease? Specifically, I wonder about the potassium content. Also, Should Hydra Care be fed separately from food? Does feeding it in food or alongside food change its composition enough to affect the hydrating ability (osmolarity)??
-
Purina Hydra Care is a nutrient-enriched water supplement that promotes healthy hydration in cats. According to the manufacturer, Hydra Care is recommended as a supplement for any cats who would benefit from additional water intake. Hydra Care should be offered separately, in a third bowl alongside your cat’s food and drinking water. 1 packet of Hydra Care contains 32.56 mg of Potassium. It is recommended to consult with your veterinarian to determine if Hydra Care is appropriate for your cat’s needs.

If I add Calming Care to refrigerated wet food and warm it slightly in the microwave, will that reduce effectiveness??
-
According to the manufacturer, warming the Calming Care some is okay. It is active up to a certain temperature. However, it is better to warm the food and then sprinkle the Calming Care on. The manufacturer does not recommend a microwave because the heat cannot be controlled as well.

My kitten got into the box... Can they overdose??
-
FortiFlora is a probiotic and contains no active medications, so your cat will not overdose. According to the manufacturer, the primary concern would be your cat ingesting the packaging materials (e.g. box, tape). If packaging materials were ingested, the manufacturer recommends to continue feeding your pet normally and observe them to ensure no intestinal blockage of the packaging materials. Speak to your veterinarian with further concerns.

thefortiflora is there a reason i cant pet my pet?
-
Can FortiFlora be given with Tylan powder??
-
FortiFlora can be given to balance a dog's digestive system, reducing stomach upset and diarrhea. FortiFlora may help dogs while they are taking antibiotics like Tylan powder, as antibiotics could potentially cause loose stools or diarrhea. There are no known drug interactions between these two products, so they may be given together. Thank you, VetRxDirect

have a rescue puppy and they gave us fortiflora to use but the packet is for feline..can puppy use this or do need one for canine/?
-
Belle, The FortiFlora feline and canine products contain the same ratio of nutritional components such as protein, fat, and fiber as well as the same inactive ingredients. Also, the same microorganism, Enterococcus faecium, is used at the same concentration for both products. The two FortiFlora products appear to be the same based on the information provided by the manufacturer. Your puppy's veterinarian may have additional information on the product so we do recommend contacting him or her for further advice. Thank you, VetRxDirect
