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.

An excellent product that works!
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 30 SachetsThis is a great product to assist with regulating my dog's fussy stomach. As someone who takes probiotics myself, I know the benefits and I am happy to endorse this vet-recommended supplement for a healthier belly. You still get to do the belly rubs, but 100% from love, not a bellyache. The price was the most reasonable as well.-

Great Product for My Dog's Gut Health
From Chicago IllinoisComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsMy 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. -
This medication has helped my dog a lot!
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats Canine Probiotic, 45 Sachets, 6-Week SupplyI bought Fortiflora Calming Care at the recommendation of our DVM at Iowa State University, I hopes it would help with her IBD and her very picky eating habit. We've used it now for almost two weeks and I am so grateful for this product, which has made a noticeable difference for my beautiful dog, not to mention her human parent's life too.-

Works
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 30 SachetsI have a French Bulldog, and anyone who owns one knows they are little hoover machines and like to eat anything and everything. We were having some gut issues with her and my Veterinarian recommended putting her on this probiotic. She's been on it for about 6 months and safe to say our gut problems are down to just here and there! She also loves the taste! -
This has saved his life
From UndisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 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 FortiFlora Probiotic for Cats 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!-

How come the price of this has increased so drastically??
-
We apologize for the increase in price. Unfortunately, we have no control over the acquisition costs from our distributors so whenever those costs rise, the price of the product does as well. We do offer coupons that you could use on orders to help with that cost as well. Thank you, VetRxDirect

I mistakenly ordered the canine Fortiflora instead of the feline Fortiflora. Can I use the canine version with my cat and what is the difference? My cat weighs 9 Ibs. if that is relevant.?
-
Judy, 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 only difference between the two formulations is the addition of taurine in the feline product. According to the manufacturer, taurine has been added for immune system health. Your veterinarian may have additional information on the product so we do recommend contacting him or her for further advice. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Can Fortiflora be given to a diabetic, mega-colon, old cat???
-
There are reported cases of cats with diabetes using FortiFlora and not having any adverse events. The only contraindication for using FortiFlora in a pet would be if their immune system is severely compromised. For further information on FortiFlora in you cat contact your cat's veterinarian.
