Cat Vitamins - Spectrin 16 OZ - Liquid Vitamin & Antioxidant Supplement for Cats - 96 doses

Our cats love this. They ask for it in their own way. I make sure we have some in stock.

I have an old cat who has a malady, which caused thickening of the wall of his small intestine. It is still not determined whether the cause is lymphoma or it is irritable bowel disease. The result is nutrient malabsorption and precipitous weight loss of about 40%, despite a very strong appetite.The cat's malnutrition is so severe that I am administering 2x the daily amount instructed for his weight on the bottle's label. He is given a measured squirt onto the roof of his mouth at 7am after breakfast, and at 7pm after dinner. I'm using an Easy Dose bulb type 'Spoon Dropper' of capacity 1 tsp. It is easy to clean and sterilize with a dilute solution of dish detergent + bleach after each use.I've found that the sick cat does not eat his food if I mix even a half-dose into a meal portion that he normally can finish immediately. However, we also have a one year old kitten that was caught licking clean the Spectrum bottle cap which had been left on the kitchen counter while I was attending to the sick cat.If the sick cat (now 13 yrs old) does pull through and begins regaining weight as a result of my twice daily nutritional interventions, I will update this review to attest to this product's effectiveness. Until then, I cannot report as to how effective this product is.Update: 1-5-17The sick cat (now almost 14 yrs old) is doing far better now than last year. Beginning last July I've been making up a DAILY formula consisting of:8 fl oz Meyenberg full fat goat milk1 raw organic egg yolk1 tsp Spectrin liquid multi-supplement28 g scoop of Naked Whey 100% grass fed whey protein powder1/8 tsp trans-resveratrol powder1/32 tsp Purina FortiFlora probiotic powder1/32 tsp PremoPet Premo probiotic powderIn addition to the above formula, the sick cat also began eating Hounds & Gatos zero-carb catfood every day, a food which we discovered only late last spring. However, he definitely prefers the above formula, which I dispense in several small servings per day, while keeping the remainder cold and fresh in the fridge. His weight has since increased from just 6.5 lbs to 7.8 lbs currently. Note that in his prime, his weight was 9.5 lbs, So he is still far from healthy. But last summer, before I began making up the formula, he was so weak that we didn't think he had 4 weeks of life left in him. Now, he is again going outside a few hours per day and doing his best to live his life to its fullest.Update: 4-24-2017Cat is still alive, albeit very boney looking, but every day he goes outside, and he can still purr, and still cuddles with me in bed. I failed to mention earlier, that as far back as April of last year I have also been giving him once per week a 1 ml squirt from the dropper included with Nature's Bounty Sublingual Liquid B Complex. This product is marketed for human consumption, and 1 ml is a daily human dose. I was instructed by my vet to give him this enormous dose once per week. About 3 months ago I began adding 10 mg piperine powder to the formula, as one medical study (on humans, not cats) showed that it greatly supports the trans-resveratrol supplement.

This appears to be a good supplement. My cats are extremely fussy eaters and I was concerned they may not be getting optimum nutrition. After adding this to their diet, their coats are beautiful and energy levels are good for 16 year olds.My concern is with how the product is delivered. You don't know who the carrier will be until after ordering and sometimes not until it's received. UP trucks are not air conditioned, so I can't be certain the product will not be compromised if ordered in the summer, especially here in Florida. Wish there was a way to know before ordering, I don't want to spend the money to receive a product that may be damaged by heat and won't benefit my pets.

I have a cat who has never eaten cat food. Crazy!!! But I've had him since birth and I created the monster. Lol. I've been using this product for about 4 years now. I noticed he was not growing and his limbs were not acting right, I think it's because he wasn't getting the nutritional values because he didn't eat regular cat food. So I mix this with his chicken. I boil the chicken, cut into cubes, and mix in a Ziploc with this liquid supplement and he has not only grown, but has no abnormalities like stiff limbs, tiredness, etc. This has actually been a lifesaver for my little pal. No odd smell, texture is smooth and light, and it just tints/appearance the chicken a slightly darker color. 1 bottle lasts about a week and he has it on every serving of chicken which is about 3 times a day. I think but not 100 that it has a chicken flavor...Lasts well in the fridge and I will forever be grateful for this product. I don't think he would have such a good quality life if it wasn't for this vitamin supplement.

Too soon to tell if this is helping my cat. I had also found "Rebound" for cats/dogs on here and ordered it as well. She's currently taking the other one since it expires in 7days after opening. Did notice that both products have similar ingredients so didn't want to overload my kitty with vitamins etc. She hates both. But she doesn't eat soft food, refuses to, so liquid in a syringe by mouth isn't her favorite thing. Only giving three stars because it's too soon to give an honest review. Will update when she's back on it.

My cat is one who walked up to me outside just emaciated and we took him in, to the vet. Even though he's healthy now after yards of medicines to clear a ton of infections and worms at first, he is still not eating as much as he needs to put on a little bit more weight. I decided to try vitamins to increase his appetite. This is so easy to give him. We use a syringe (one person holds and the other person pries open his mouth and ejects liquid vitamin). He was a little confused at first, but he kept licking his lips. He hasn't put up any fuss at all since the first time about taking this. He doesn't open up his mouth for it, but he is a willing participant and doesn't fight it at all. And, low and behold, his appetite has improved. He looks so much healthier even tho he's still a skinny cat. But he's playing with the dogs and running around the house non stop. So, he's feeling pretty good, I'd say. The bottle is going to last a long time. So, that makes the price very good. Just remember to refrigerate the bottle once you open it. This is good stuff and I'm so glad to not have to try giving him pills. Recommend (my friend bought a bottle after asking me where I got it and she's having results even better than me).
