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.

I Use this item everyday for my dog.
From Henderson,NVComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI love this product and it works great. I am a first time dog owner. My dog was born with a sensitive GI tract and this product works great for her. I highly recommend this product. I have two pets but my dog is the only one that uses this item and needs it. -
Great Stuff!
From NCComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsWe have 9 cats and most of our cats won't eat their food without probiotics on it. We bought it originally for our cat who has chronic URI's and is on antibiotics all the time. Probiotics help to provide the good bacteria in her gut that the antibiotics can kill off and keep her stomach and intestines healthy while at the same time trying to keep her upper respiratory healthy too. Once my other cats got a taste of the probiotics they wanted to have it on their moist meal too! -
Works Great!
From Bettendorf, IowaComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI use one packet everyday mixed w a small amount of canned. And then on top of dry. Dog has gastritis and this probiotic works well. No trouble with her eating it! Cheaper to use this daily then to go to vet when the gastritis flares up.-

I purchase this often !
From WVComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsUse this daily on my GSD's .. My male GSD has digestive issues and the vet said to try this. Took about one month to get it in system well but now I have used it for over a yr and buy it by the case when I can or at 3 boxes at a time.. My female uses it too.. don't need it but I put it on her anyway.. May put my pup 5 mo old on it.. the vet said he could go on it , but might way until he is older.. Anyway, I do highly recommend it. -

Maybe not for dogs with IBD
From Dallas, TexasComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsMy dog has IBD in his lower intestine. This product may help restore the Flora in the gut but it wont help issues like IBD (Irratable Bowel Disease). -
Good product

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.

Q & A

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.

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
