my 15 yr old cat doesnt have many teeth and the consistency seems to be hard for him to get down. can i mix it with water or something?

I have a 16 year old female cat with mouth sores, so she has trouble even eating soft cat food. I mix a supplement like this with Gerbers meat (usually chicken or turkey, sometimes ham or beef) pureed babyfood, along with the "gravy" strained from Friskies canned food, like their mixed grill, to add feline diet essentials like taurine, and add chicken broth topper or bone broth, resulting in essentially a liquid diet. She has been doing well on this for over a year now. I was using "Miracle Vet" for a supplement, for over a year, but they recently changed something and she throws up if I add that, so I will be looking to add this as a replacement, since I have used this in the past as a supplement for another elderly cat.

Can someone please share the ingredient list for this? Not sure why there is no photo of the back of the tube on Amazon. :/

Why does it state on back under nutritional information. "Supplement for use in dogs" is this an error?

No this is not an error, but IS misleading by this company. The reason for this is that originally this product said "for Dogs and Cats". They found that a lot of people would NOT give it to their dogs because it had "Cats" on it and dogs should NOT eat cat food regularly (but it was MADE for both dogs and cats). And some people would not give it to their cats because it had dogs on it. If you check the label?????? It is EXACTLY the same for either dogs or cats, ingredient wise. I buy either one and give it to both my dog, and my 2 cats. Not a real problem, just a marketing thing!!! And if it makes you feel better (emotionally) get the one for dogs (because cats can have dog stuff) and give it to your cat! I understand your confusion because I researched this in depth and spoke to my vet about it as well.

Can you mix it in with wet food?

Yes. After my cat stopped licking it from the tube, I did mix it with her wet food, and that worked well.

Come nella descrizione è un integratore nutrizionale peri gatti. La consistenza è gelatinosa, odore per noi sgradevole ma è sicuramente appetibile per i gatti. L'ho usato per il mio gatto di circa 8/9 anni che comunque vive all'esterno. Nell'ultimo periodo ha avuto problemi di salivazione, probabilmente qualche enterite o pustole in bocca, mangiava a stento e ha avuto pure perdita di pelo. Con questo prodotto e con una cura antibiotica sta meglio, sicuramente ha molto più appetito. Lo consiglio!

I recently moved home and my furbaby refused to eat for 5 days, i had been feeding her by syringe (as advised by vet previously) and she just still had no interest to eat. I purchased the gel lastnight and received this morning, 9am. Started to use it straight away and put a little on my finger and put it on her mouth to lick it up. I did that several times throughout the day. She just started eating kibble around 7pm by herself!!! So so happy that her appetite has returned, all thanks to the gel!!! 😊😊

Great gel easy to apply if they will not eat just apply the amount needed to the front leg of the cat and they simply lick it off and with this being high calorie and all the extra vitamins and minerals they need to get over any not eating phases due to illness or just being old needing that extra care i'd highly recommend this high calorie gel especially cat's with diarrhoea it's very effective to keep there calorie intake up doesn't smell that bad and if they will not eat on it's own then all you need to do is put the portion need on there front leg and they simply lick it off and it seems to helps to make them hungry too but this is fantastic gel cause it set's your worry aside off your cat not getting enough calories during illnesses I've alway order this now it's handy to have in your first aid cupboard it as a good use by date definitely 5*

I bought this for a very old cat that was skinny and couldn't put weight on.He is now eating more and will try new foods, he seems happier in himself purring more and following everyone around.
