Pet Ultimates Probiotics for Cats – 2 Pack of 20-Species Cat Probiotic Powder to Treat Diarrhea, Vomiting, Digestive Support & Antibiotics Recovery – Cat’s Health Supplies (44 gr)

Our 3 picky cats LOVE this stuff!
Our cats all LOVE this stuff!I am an independent reviewer who has not received any monetary compensation or any of this product in return for my review.We have 3 cats: Two senior lady cats (one 14-year-old and one 12-year-old), and one 2-year-old energetic male, all very different in personality but all good eaters and all very healthy. So healthy, in fact, that our vet always MARVELS at how soft, thick, and shiny their coats are and how good their teeth are! This is because we feed them the best grain-free, high-protein food we can find. We do our research, and we read labels.So we are not looking to change our food, but we are very interested in finding a safe, top-quality probiotic to add to their diets because the 2 ladycats are chronic barfers (onto our rented condo’s wall-to-wall, off-white carpeting). Their annual physical exams, including bloodwork, always show them to be in good health, so we’re pretty convinced that they just need a little help with digestion. A good probiotic.And therein, we thought, lies the problem. Our cats all love their food, but so far any time we have tried to introduce a supplement, we have seen the same thing: Three cats walking away from untouched dinners.We are old enough to have gone through decades of pendulum-swinging on the dry-food-only versus wet-food-only debates. We see the merits in both, and we think that a varied diet makes the most sense. The dry food keeps their teeth healthy, and the wet (canned) food gives them extra moisture in their diet.We give them each 3 small meals per day, we discard any uneaten food, and each meal is served in 3 clean bowls, 1 for each cat. (Yes, that’s 9 cat bowls–not including the water bowls–to clean per day.) So we don’t think that the barfing has anything to do with improper food handling. For breakfast and bedtime snack, we serve 1/4 cup of dry food split between their 3 bowls. For the meal in between (dinner), we serve 1/6 can of wet (canned) food into each of their 3 bowls. It amounts to just about a heaping tablespoon each, but they always look forward to it.Wet food is the best way to introduce a supplement, but even then, it’s tricky with our cats, so I have to do it very gradually. With this PETUltimates probiotic, I added the tiniest, imperceptible pinch to the wet food in each of their 3 dishes, and I stirred it up until it looked undetectable. I expected them to discover it and turn up their little noses, but they all lapped it up with gusto! (In fact, it seemed to me that their bowls were all licked unusually clean.)So far, so good, I thought. So after every few days I started upping the dose until I reached the full-scoop dose into each bowl. Success! They LOVE this stuff!My only worry is that I read one customer question (which was really more of a statement than a question) stating that PETUltimates is really only used for appetite enhancement (well, appetites certainly have been enhanced in our cats!), but that for probiotics, FortiFlora (by Purina) is being used now.I hope that this is NOT the case, and that PETUltimates can be used as our cats’ complete probiotic supplement because:1. Our cats LOVE this stuff, so if it’s a complete probiotic, I think we’re home free! Why mess with success?2. PETUltimates lists a number (20) of strains of different probiotics, whereas I see only 1 probiotic strain (Enterococcus faecium) in the FortiFlora ingredient list. I just googled Enterococcus faecium, and although it can be used for probiotics, it can also cause meningitis and endocarditis. I went back and looked at PETUltimates’ ingredient list and was glad to find that they didn’t use Enterococcus faecium.3. Purina’s FortiFlora’s first ingredient (and ingredients are listed starting with the highest amount to the lowest amount) was something I thought looked questionable: “Animal digest,” so I googled it. (I think you should google it, too, and see for yourself!) Check out one of the links I found: […](I told you, we do our research, and we read labels.) If you look it up, you will see that “animal digest” contains euthanized animals!4. PETUltimates is all USA produced in a GMP-certified facility (I looked that up, too).Since we lost a very sweet cat to the 2007 China cat-food-ingredient debacle, we have been extra careful about doing our research and reading labels. Our cats are indoor cats, so they have no choice but to eat what we provide for them, so it’s our responsibility to make sure that not only are we NOT feeding them tainted ingredients (or euthanized animals!), but, also, we are finding the best possible food for them to eat.I think that the fact that our vet always comments on how beautiful and healthy their coats and teeth are (even in our 14-year-old cat who looks and acts like a 2-year-old) is a good validation that we are being good providers for our cats. Which is only fair, considering that they provide us with daily purring, entertainment, and unconditional love.

2 days diarrheaGave him once and back to normal poopVery satisfied ☺️

I have a cat that has had constipation issues for several years. Vet costs were running upwards of $1500 and the only thing the vet could suggest was Restorolax which made it worse! She also has kidney disease and multiple antibiotics were used for Urinary tract infections. I was looking for an alternative to not only fix the constipation issues she would have but also help with her kidney disease. We started to see improvements within the first few weeks and it took 4 months to get her to the point where we can tell she is not having the same problems with constipation! She does not seem to mind the taste though I had to buy another type for my two kittens who hated the taste. I can’t say for sure if her BUN levels are down for kidney disease but she is definitely feeling better! I wish I had bought this years ago!

Mon chat vomissait beaucoup à cause des boules de poil. Avec les pro biotiques il y a beaucoup d’amélioration.
