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.

Just the ticket
From UndisclosedComments about Hydra Care 30 SachetsAbe is a very active Blue Heeler with a somewhat sensitive tummy. We found FortiFlora to be very effective in combating these issues. One packet sprinkled on his morning meal and he's good to roll into the day. Using it every day is safe and effective!-

Great Product for My Dog's Gut Health
From Chicago IllinoisComments about Hydra CareMy 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!

Great for giving meds to difficult cat
From UndisclosedComments about Hydra Care 12 SachetsI needed something to mask the taste of medicine and supplements for my cat who is difficult to give oral meds. Hydra Care is amazing! She can smell it when I open the pouch and goes crazy until I give it to her. -
This has saved his life
From UndisclosedComments about Hydra Care 12 SachetsHe has always had problems defecating. So my vet told me to use meralex which works ONLY when he eats but if he cannot go , he will go days without eating or drinking. Which is the problem to start with.He NEVER drinks water. My friend told me about HYDRA CARE and now he will eat his food with that mixed with warm water. This has SAVED HIS LIFE-

Much needed hydration for my CKD kitty
From UndisclosedComments about Hydra Care 12 SachetsMy kitty Rudy has kidney disease and was also recently diagnosed with heart disease, which required me to cut way down on the sub-q fluids I was giving him because his heart can't take the fluid load. So I really needed a way to keep him hydrated. Two of our vets mentioned Hydra Care to us and so we tried it. Rudy loves it and drinks the entire portion without coming up for air. We're hoping it will be helpful for his kidneys, lab results are pending. Keep your paws crossed!-

Hydra-Care is Helping Our Cat
From UndisclosedComments about Hydra Care 12 SachetsOur cat loves this Hydra-Care, which was recommended by our Vet. It's helping her to stay hydrated and to use her litter box more often, which is much healthier for her. It's also a terrific way of delivering medications to her, since the flavor of the Hydra-Care masks the flavor of the medication.-

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.
