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.

Helped restore my dog's digestive system to health
From MidwestComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsPurchased this at the recommendation of our veterinarian for my Labrador, to help with her recovery from a whipworm infestation. Post deworming, which also involved a regimen of metaclopromide antibiotic (which of course kills any good gut bacteria along with the bad), Fortiflora restored her intestinal tract to a normal state. I am going to keep both of my dogs on Fortiflora from now on as part of their healthy diet plan. The price from Vet Rx Direct is the best I have found too, which helps. -
Works wonders!

MIRACLE POWDER
From Baldwin, NYComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI 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.-

Godsend!
From Houston, TX, USAComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI purchase this monthly for my eight year old cat who suffers from loose stools from time to time...has made all the difference in his health! I mix a packet into a serving of canned chicken cat food. My other kitty also likes the taste, and the vet has assured me it is fine for him as well...it's also much more affordable from VetRx Direct!! -
Definitely improved intestinal health and balance
From Colorado Springs, COComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsFortiFlora was recommended by our veterinarian for improving the intestinal health and balance of our small dogs when they were having a bit of trouble with semi-loose stools. We sprinkled 1/2 packet in their dog food, made no other changes in diet, and they have improved 100%. We now sprinkle one packet in their three dishes to maintain this balance and only do this a couple of times a week. We also skip doses to see if things are normal. Great product. -
Good to deal with.

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.

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
