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.

Best thing you can give your dog!
From undisclosedComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsYour dog needs this if he/she has diarrhea, very soft stools, excessive gas and your vet has examined the dog and cleared him/her of other health problems. If antibiotics, dietary changes, stress, persistent and periodic digestive issues are making you and your pet miserable, try this product for 30 days. You will soon know if this product will help your dog or not. Stop changing dog food every week according to what's on sale and give the dog a chance to adjust to some good pet food and daily FortiFlora mixed with the food. You and your dog will be glad you did. -
I would buy this product again

Excellent digestive supplement
From Bethpage, NYComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsProbiotics are a good addition to any dog's diet, and with one dog who sometimes has stomach issues, this has been a life saver for us. It minimizes soft stool and upset stomach and provides daily health benefits. The single packet dose means no extra time measuring, and the powder mixes into food easily -- plus, both my dogs seem to like the taste. The price on this item recently skyrocketed 30-35% pretty much everywhere, and with no explanation -- with no real discounts even for a volume purchase. This was an excellent deal for a six-pack purchase. -
Great product
From MidwestComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsOur 5 year old Italian Spinone has a lot of sensitivities and allergies. The product is so easy to use. She loves it right in her food. Helps to keep her from itching and loose stools. -

Tear stains are gone!
From Roanoke, TXComments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsI ordered Fortiflora (canine) for my 3 year old male English Bulldog with ulcerative colitis. He has been on Fortiflora since he was diagnosed over a year ago. While I was away from home, our pet sitter gave Fortiflora daily to our 2 year old white female English Bulldog also. We had tried several products for tear staining with no real good outcomes. Medicated wipes seemed to help a little but nothing had cleared up her rust stained wrinkles or stopped her excessive tearing. Six consecutive days of Fortiflora were enough to see big improvement when we returned home and now, two weeks later, she has just a faint pink tint to her wrinkles and no tearing. -

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.

Hello, I have been reading up on giving cats with suppressed immune systems probiotics and most say you should not. It also says the same with humans. My vet told me to give it, but I think her immune system is compromised due to long term use of prednisolone (due to intestinal cancer) since she now has what seems to be a cold. I think I am probably making matters worse. What is your opinion? Now I have no idea what to give her for diarrhea. Thank you.?

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.
