    Do you give your cat any supplements?

    Sash gets Vitamin C, Coenzyme Q10, Prozyme and Bioplasma a homepathic cell salt tablet.

    No I don't. The dry food that I feed them has all of the supplements that they need.

    We have given one of our boys L-Lysine from time to time. The vet specialist says it builds up their immune systems and helps them fight viral diseases. This seems to have cleared up Archie's persistent viral eye infections. Hope it helps!

    Same here. My vet suggested flax seed oil for Mitzi's coat. I switched her to Natural Balance light last month and it seems to have had a major impact on her fur - it's SO soft and fluffy!

    Mishi's on K/D for his kidneys and it, too, seems to have everything he needs for now. They don't tolerate pilling too wel (what cat does?) so why stress the cat needlessly with vitamin pills?

    They're both very healthy right now. I actually have noticed a change in their behavior since switching them both when Mishi's diagnosis of kidney problems came up last month. They're both more active - pestering each other, playing more, being more affectionate to me and each other. I'm living in a very cat happy household right now.

    Sash doesn't get stressed out at all. His supplements come in powdered form and they go right into his canned food, he doesn't even notice them. Just devours his food. Bioplasma comes in a small tablet form and I just pop that in Sash's mouth. No complaints from my boy or stress involved.

    I give them all 1/4 teaspoon of Omega-Acids about every two weeks in their wet food. They LOVE it...I think it tastes like liver or something.

    Its mainly for their skin and fur, but it really helps Micah's IBD.

    Mine are getting a multivitamine paste, but not every day. The love it!

    I also plan to get omega 3-fatty acids for them.
