Re: [Felvtalk] Lysine added to dry food?
I think maintenance is 250 mg once or twice a day. 500 mg once or twice a day for symptomatic kitties. I would double-check this though in the archives or elsewhere. :) Wendy Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world - indeed it is the only thing that ever has! ~~~ Margaret Meade ~~~ - Original Message From: Caroline Kaufmann [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2008 1:31:02 PM Subject: [Felvtalk] Lysine added to dry food?

I originally tried to feed him a diet of Wellness canned only and he just stopped eating it totally (waste of expensive food)! That is when I switched him to Eagle Pack. So as far as sending him to his new home with feeding and supplment instructions, his new mom says she doesn't want to change anything b/c he looks so gorgeous and his coat is so wonderful, so she will keep him on the Holistic Dry. I've asked that she occassionally give him some canned Holistic, but warned that he won't eat it 2 days in a row. I'd like to send her with instructions to add powdered Lysine to his dry food and was wondering if people thought this will work? I have done it a few times with him and he seemed to not notice/care, but it hasn't been my primary way of administering lysine b/c I did keep up with giving him canned food every few days. I think it will work tho b/c he loves his Holistic so much, I seriously doubt he won't eat it due to the Lysine powder. Also, what is a good maintenance dose? He is as healthy as a horse, so I just want to provide it to them as a preventative measure. thanks caroline _ See what people are saying about Windows Live.

oh you do? powdered lysine? okay, I will have them do that. That seems easy enough! God, I am so excited and also so nervous and yet, so happy for Manny! I'm going to miss him. He's my most gorgeous boy and the most friendly in the house, so now I will have no male-model cat to show off to people.

Re: [Felvtalk] Lysine added to dry food?
He will probably eat it ok but if he doesn't, just dissolve it in a little bit of water and put it on the dry food. If he will eat the dry food without it, he will eat it with dissolved lysine, at least I have never had one refuse to eat it. Some of mine did refuse to eat it before I dissolved it.
