Pills can be cut in half!
March 12, 2021
After I give each half I squirt about 1 ml of water into my cat's mouth. Much easier than administering the entire pill.

An option I didn't know about-glad I got this gel!
July 5, 2016
Seems to be more palatable to my cat than the pills, so that is a plus. The pills were too large for her to swallow easily, and the gel is a good option so far.

Helps with low potassium level
October 27, 2015
According to the latest bloodwork my kitty had, her potassium levels are back in the normal range; I do credit this product with helping to do that.
