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.

Excellent product
From Aliquippa, Pa.Comments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsMy 2 yr. old dog always seemed to have looser bowels, and this seems to help that, and my older dog started licking her butt constantly and them licking the spot where she had laid. I was really starting to worry, so I started her on it too, and guess what, it really worked on her and she doesn't do it anymore. Thank goodness! It worked on her right away. -
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! -
I will always use this product for my dogs.
From Lester, Pa.Comments about FortiFlora Probiotic for CatsAge can bring on intestinal changes. Fortiflora seems to be working well for my 12 yr. old mix dog . We can all use probiotics. Additional fiber also helps. -

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.
