Title: Question regarding Viacutan Plus
Post by: MrsR on March 23, 2008, 17:39:43 PM
Hi guys last month I tried Sylvester (dry flakey skin) and Bunty (my old lady) on Viacutan Plus capsules which me and my husband noticed a small difference so this month want to get some more but had a nose on Vet UK and wondered if it would be more  sensible to get the Viacutab Plus Liquid EFA pump but wondered if it was simply a case of a little srpay on their food and that was it or is it something else completely?

I used to put two pumps on the food and mix in  :)

I can't remember to be honest - quite a while though.

I had to stop using it cos Sol was allergic  :tired:

Apparently the dose is 1 - 2 pumps per 10kg bodyweight so I guess 1 pump is enough for the average cat. There are 166 pumps per 100ml bottle. You can do the sums to compare  :evillaugh:

It is applied directly to food - I am always wary as I have never had much luck getting cats to eat food with anything added  :evillaugh:

I also saw something relating to dogs which I guess is the same for cats. It said that dogs given Viacutan only needed 1/2 dose of preds.

Hiya

I would recommend the pump yes, its wonderful stuff (tasteless too so normally tolerated very well) if you have skin probs i'd go for the 2 pumps or if its for maintenence use 1 pump, if you squirt abit extra by mistake etc (hard to do) then dont worry it wont harm at all  :)
