I don't agree with your vet. Even though I do not personally use vitamin C with my kitties, I have read a lot of good information on it's use. Also, I don't think it can hurt. Dosage information would be important to know to make sure it's given correctly, but I know in humans you cannot over-dose on it because it's a water soluble vitamin. Not sure about in kitties.
