    These cats ARE my babies!!!! They eat before I do! Maya is taking it like a trooper. I see a small difference and since I have a BIG bottle of it, I'm going to up the dose to two times a day.

    Ewww is right - fish flavored bubble gum. Disgusting!!!

    My furkids love the bubble gum flavor. Of course - they're dogs tho and don't have the finicky tastes that cats do. Sparky used to root for "kitty snacks" in the litter box! Now THAT'S disgusting!

    People pay for it, not cats, so it is marketed to human noses! The same goes for foods - we never, for example, see "mouse-flavored" cat food ... or chipmunk or squirrel flavored ... or "rotted roadkill" flavor for dogs ...

    I generally end up wearing the stuff. I get more on me than in the cat! Mac and Ming have spitting powers that have to be seen to be believed. I like the idea of fish flavor. THAT would probably not end up in my face!

    Hmm. maybe there is a non-flavored version...I'd ask the vet or even your local pharmacist. For flavoring I would add flavored Forta Flora. My kitties love that stuff and it's good for them too!
