Hi all! Thanks SO MUCH for all your advice and thoughts about Slinky! I've been telling my friends that joining this group is one of the best things I ever did!!!
I have a quick question (one of MANY to come I'm sure) for all of you. I mentioned in my original post that I got some vitamins and a digestive track thing for Slink at the natural pet food store.
Both are Ark Naturals brand. The vitamins are called "Nu-Pet Feline Granular...Powerful Vitamin & Antioxideant Formula...Green Food Phytonutrients Plus Taurine." Says it has wheat sprout commplex, alfalfa grass, vit. A, vit C, vit E, fish protein, carbs, bioflavinoids, L-Taurine, L-Glutathione, L-Cysteine, and Selenium.
The digestive track thing is called Gentle Digest (includes prebiotics and probiotics). Says it has Lactic Acid Bacilus (L+), min. 50 million vialbe
spores per capsule, and Chicory. Then under ingreds it says Dicalcium phosphate, rice flour, chicory root, lactic acide bacilius, and magnesium stearate.
Does anyone know anything about these supplements? Are they good? Is there something better? Would I be better off to make one of the homemade versions people have sent recipes for? Or should I do that in addition to these?
Any suggestions for getting him to take these? I tried mixing them into canned food and he didn't eat much...but that was when I was trying everything new and he's not used to canned food yet so he may go for it once he gets used to the canned by itself. I broke the gentle digest capsules and put the powder in the food. Is there a better way to get him to swallow the capsule?
Thanks again for all your help! I feel so ignorant...but I guess that's what
happens when you're trying to do something totally new for the first time! Glad you all are so knowledgeable and willing to help!!!
I hope all your little ones are doing well.
MJ
