VetriScience Gut Health Chews, Probiotic Everyday Digestive Supplement for Cats, Pet Probiotics for Digestion Support, Gas and Diarrhea, Immune Support, 120 Million CFU Per Chew, Duck, 60 Count

I bought these for my older cat, who had been dealing with bowel blockages. She gets one every morning and thinks it’s a treat. After giving them to her daily for over a month, she hasn’t had any bowel or digestive issues at all. Definitely worth the price.

I think many of these 2-3 star reviews are unfair to the manufacturer. Cats are notoriously picky. Any experienced cat owner will know this. Some cats like duck, some cats don't. It's like rating an ORANGE 2 stars because your cat prefers apples. Anyway, back to my review, my 4 and 5-month-old kittens were having loose stools so I had to get a probiotic along with an anti-diarrhea strategy asap. To the lady who says the treats are too big, er... just break them apart? These are easy to break into pieces and my 4-month-old kitten has a small mouth, and she can eat these whole occasionally. When she can't, I break them apart for her, problem solved. My 5-month-old kitten eats them whole, so an adult cat definitely can eat them whole. So they do like these treats and try to sniff my hands and the bag for more. I sometimes feel bad because I can only give one per day. It's been 2 weeks now and the stools are all firming up. Note that I did also incorporate a bland poached chicken diet with broth for a few days and add 1/4 capsule of Jarrow's Saccharomyces boulardii + 1/4 teaspoon of slippery elm bark powder twice a day. At this point, I'm running out so I'll have to purchase these again soon. Last but not least, one review said, "I don’t know if these do anything. They might but even if they do, your cat will probably refuse to eat them, and any marginal benefits will not be worth the deceitful methods you’ll need to employ to even test them out." Again, each cat is different. As shown with many of the other reviews, there ARE cats who do love this treat. No deceitful methods being employed here with my kittens; they eat right out of my hand. So try this out. For the price, it's worth it, and if your cats don't like it, just give it to another cat owner. All in all, I hope everyone will be able to get their cats happy and healthy again.

Overall, I think it was a good product. Unfortunately, the cats didn’t eat them after a few of weeks. Sometimes they would find them later in the day and eat them. Since I only got to use it for three weeks I can’t say for certain it worked, but I think it would would have if it was allowed more time. I did notice a slight improvement.

I have a hard time getting the cats to eat these. Sometimes they’ll eat half of one. I can’t say whether they’re effective because it is so hard to get them to eat these chews. I’ve tried around four other probiotics so far and the kitties all loved all of them. They lose their minds, they yell for them!

Helps with my rescue kittens when they get upset tummies with diarrhea when I change them over from kitten milk to wet food. I crush it up in their food. It works great!

Disappointed. I bought this product hoping to resolve a digestive and dirrahea problem with one of my cats and prevent having to go to the vet. This cat eats everything but everything seems to cause her diarrhea and gut problems. I changed her to a digestive care diet from a very reputable company. Though it helps a bit, I wanted to add something that could help more. So, I bought VetriScience Probiotic. She refuses to eat them no matter what I do. I thought maybe I could use them with my other cats but NONE of them will eat them. Upon opening the bag, the smell is quite strong. Not fishy, like their shape. Almost a chemical smell. They were pretty small, compact, and would be "chewy" instead of crunchy if they would eat them. Unfortunately, this product has been useless to me and mine, so I cannot share anything positive, and hope I can return them. Best wishes to others who try them. It's always a gamble. This one didn't work for us.

My cat used to love to play and get pets, but recently became aggressive towards us and the other cats. The vet said it could be an underlying condition. We noticed our cat eats his food way too fast, thus causing him to puke a lot. He also loves human cheese. I started giving him this chewable once a day, and he turned back into the lovable cat. Not aggressive, plays, seems happier and loves pets again. He has no problem eating them.

For once a treat that doesn’t give my cat stomach issues he has a very sensitive digestive track, and these haven’t made him have accidents

Price: 8/10, appropriate price for the item Effectiveness: 10/10, litterbox is way less toxic, and cat is much happier in general Flavor: 8/10 (I assume?), he readily eats them, but doesn't go nuts for them or anything Pros: They fixed my cat! Several months ago, Simon became a bit grumpy and withdrawn, nothing particularly intense or concerning, and we assumed it was due to the new cat. He also would occasionally sit in the bathroom and yell for no reason, and have extra stinky poops. I decided to try probiotics for him and within 48 hours he was the cat we knew and loved again: outgoing, over-the-top affectionate, super chatty. I can only assume he was in discomfort, and I only wish I'd tried them sooner. Cons: availability may be an issue. When I went to order more, they were unavailable. They were back a week later, but it makes me a bit nervous.

I have a cat who is a garbage disposal, will eat anything, but for some reason turns his nose up at these when offered them as a treat (I assume he's expecting a greenie). However I've found great success in crumbling it and including it in his dry food. There is a NOTICEABLE difference, he is no longer being referred to as Mr Poopy and creating biological warfare in the litterbox. It's to the point where you can tell if one of his designated food bringers has forgotten to give him one that day. I'm happy to put in a little bit extra work to make his life a little better.

I wanted a probiotic for my cat. a "healthy" treat seemed like the way to go! She's fussy with treats at the best of times and wouldn't readily eat this by itself so I've been breaking it into her breakfast and she'll readily eat it in that form. I believe it has helped firm her stool.

It possibly is good. My cat is to fussy and will not eat them. I tried hiding in food. Just because mine does not, does not mean your cat will not eat and benefit.

I use them as a once a day treat. I don't know if they work or not but its a healthy treat.
