Kitty Fur Balls: B-Gone!
A decade+ ago, 2 newborn, sibling kittens, inner city-abandoned, were rescued by our caring police, turned over & nurtured through infancy by our local vet hospital. Sisters Silky & Sahsa adopted us, full of excitement & endless purring, when they were just 10 weeks old. They slept, ate, played, were perfectly potty trained, got spayed / had all their shots, & have filled our family with love & laughs, while gracefully growing into their 65 yr old human equivalency years. Our child (now adult) has progressed through elementary, middle school, HS, & has just graduated (away University) Magna Cum Laude with BA degree (while working continuously through all 4 yrs, straight A's/ Deans list); & has immediately secured well paid employ. Naturally, we believe our cats enhanced & supported these successes (!) 😀 We've always fed them highest quality, grain free food (dry), w fresh water every day. We live in Upstate NY (country / suburbs). They're indoor, short haired, dark torties. Over the past few years, especially during Spring thaw into Summer heat & humidity, they've been hacking up loud, frequent, & (mostly) non-productive attempts to upchuck the fur plugs amassed in their complex, multi-stage, digestive innards. ("Complex" compared to humans.) Upon observation, cylindrical "plugs" of densely compacted fur are obvious, once expelled- Not stinky, not gross, not mixed w anything gross, just saliva. I googled around a bit, & quickly learned that these fur plugs are just *exactly* as commonly described by vets- cylindrical shaped, tangled masses of fur, (1-2" long), compressed into this shape by the intestines, not gross at all, just fur coated with a little bit of spit (not vomit). Apparently, the fur is supposed to pass out the other end (in much smaller amounts, little by little) into the litterbox, before it ever reaches such a large, tightly compacted, defined mass of fur- And, IF cats need to throw it up, it's supposed to dislodge & be expelled within 1-3 (-ish) attempts. Ongoing, "unproductive" upchuck attempts, are a warning sign that your cat's digestive system is at extreme peril of complete blockage, is a medical emergency- potentially life threatening & may require immediate surgery- So, unbeknownst to me, my cats' recent years of endless throwing up small-large amounts- sometimes of entire meals, other times just of frothy spit- were life-threatening warning signs! It seemed that they'd go on for a week-10 days, until finally expelling (vomiting) up a fur plug. Seriously, they're unmistakable by size, shape, composition. 🙀. Cause to begin with, is excessive fur & Velcro hook-like tongues- They just swallow way too much of their own fur, when grooming. I should add here, that as much as we love our cats, I alone support my family / pay the bills. I've owned pets in the past, & have learned the hard way, that as much as we love our pets, I'm not a billionaire, not going to sacrifice our family's entire financial security (& my own future retirement), on vet fees... That being said, I'm not heartless, I certainly don't want our furry family members to suffer, unnecessarily. Google to the rescue again- I very quickly id'd *exact* symptoms, & was surprised to learn what an immediate, urgent, lethal condition this was (cat trying, unsuccessfully, to cough up a fur plug, from so deep inside their digestive systems). P-R-E-V-E-N-T-I-O-N is the key to alleviate suffering & avoid unnecessary early death by excruciating intestinal blockage. A few frequent recommendations stood out as totes feasible- i.e., mixing a teaspoon of canned, mashed pumpkin into their food for added fibre, to help them poop out accumulated fur (tip: freeze individual portions in ice-cube trays, thaw as needed- ingenious!); And or, mixing a small amount of healthy oil into their food (ie, up to 1 teaspoon/day leftover meat juices/oils, olive oil, fish oil, etc.). Yay Amazon! Reviews astutely warned against starting w too much all at once- 1 poor reviewer fed her tiny dog a teaspoon per meal to start with, he suffered severe diarrhea & dehydration for 2 weeks... I certainly wanted to avoid torturing my cat's. In fact, our cats can pick out a fraction of a pill in a mound of yummy tuna, so I was very wary wether they'd eat food with this at all. So, I bought this small 8 oz bottle to begin with (even though price wise, larger bottles are a fraction of the cost per. ml.). 1st day- Opened/unscrewed bottle, shook contents well, pumped standing oil in dispensing tube, back into bottle, re-shook, & re-pumped freshly shaken oil into their dry food- Just 2-3 drops. They sniffed, they liked, they gobbled! (It has NO strong fishy smell). After a few days- 1/2 pump onto food, mixed well. They loved it! I did a few days of 1/2 pumps, all OK. (Trick is to watch color & consistency of poops- If too much oil is given, stool will be lighter in color, looser, & supposedly buoyant in water). All was OK. I moved up to 1 full pump daily for several days, then 1.5, & now 2 (allowing several days each). We're at 2 pumps/daily (2 cats: 11 lbs & 14 lbs). Directions on bottle indicate this is the proper amount for our little fur monsters, they like it, their fur is soffft, bowel habits ok. For now, it seems their stools are noticeably less dry, I imagine must pass easier/more comfortably. I'm a far cry from their age (65!), but for now, at the very least, I have to imagine pooping easier is a nice comfort, at their age! We'll need to wait a month or 3 before we can discern wether there's any intestinal benefit, though. I don't want to overload their systems, by increasing the dosage- Ill stick with the manufacturer's recommended daily dosage. It's just SO easy to mix it in their food! I keep the bottle in the fridge with a zip lock bag. It stays liquid, & doesn't solidify. They love it, no adverse effects, now we wait to see if it helps. Next time, I'll buy the larger bottle! 😻

Cured skin issues and dry eyes
We have a 14 year old shih-tzu who had been suffering from skin issues and dry eyes for several years. He had been on various antibiotics, topical medications, and special shampoos, but he was always itchy. He also had suffered from dry eyes that left discharge in his eyes that needed to be wiped out multiple times a days despite the fact that we tried expensive eye creams and medicines. Within 2 weeks of using the salmon oil, he no longer has any skin issues and no eye redness or discharge. This oil has been a miracle for our 14 year old pet who suffered for years and now is acting like a puppy and is so happy. The best purchase I have ever made on Amazon.

It has helped him scratch less but little did we know our Lab/Boxer would love it just as much
We have one picky eater and one who had dry skin. We bought this originally for our German Shepherd/Husky to help with his dry skin. It has helped him scratch less but little did we know our Lab/Boxer would love it just as much. She is very picky and will refuse to eat if she doesn't approve of the food. We put this on and she gobbles up her food. She went from eating 1/2 bowl a day to 2 full bowls a day. She also had a cyst on her side and by using this and eating more it has caused her to become more active (she will be 7 this year) and caused the cyst to shrink in size. That alone is reason enough to purchase this product

The Wonders of Omega 3 in Salmon Oil
I have a very old dog with an advanced stage of Arthritis. The vet suggested keeping my dog on pain killers to help him with pain. I have read about the benefits of Omega 3 in humans and its attributes to aid with Arthritis and joint pain. I asked the vet if this product could be of help which indicated to try it. The long story short, for the last month and a half, my old dog is able to walk again and stand by himself but best of all; he's not using pain killers anymore. An excellent alternative other than chemicals and pain killers. Highly recommended.

Skin/Fur Savor
My cat had dry itchy skin to the point she was scratching bald spots on herself. No matter what I did or bought nothing seemed to work. After some research I purchased this in high hopes that the oil would help her skin and it did wonders. It took about a month to see results. She no longer has bald spots and her fur is growing back beautifully. Would recommend and purchase again.

You can see the difference
I have a 4 month old German Shepherd puppy. She was scratching uncontrollably. I did some research and found that GSD's need the essential Omega 3's. Not only will it help their skin, but also their coat and it will help prevent join issues. I was skeptical, but I thought I would try it. One day we were out on a walk and ran into my GSD's puppy brother (very random). After a few hugs and kisses from brother and sister the owner turned to me and asked me what I was feeding my puppy. She commented on how beautiful her coat was. I hadn't compared their coats until she mentioned that, and I must say. My puppies coat was GLEAMING, and incredibly soft compared to her sibling. I am now a believer that this works....and I was only giving her 1 pump a day. Of course I will increase the amounts as she gets bigger, but I'll definitely keep purchasing this. Note: I also give this to my 11 1/2 year old Aussie Mix to help with her joints. Her coat is also very shiny, and she seems to be getting around a lot better too.

Canine Contact Dermatitis
I have a large furry child named Domino. We have been working together trying to solve her issue of Contact Dermatitis. Antibiotics from the Vet (a very smart & nice family friend) did not work. A change in diet did not work. Special Oatmeal baths did not work. Domino had itchy spots and missing hair all over. I was looking up articles on the internet regarding her condition and one stood out suggesting Omega 3's for pets. I went to Amazon.com to find one to try and I found this product. After 10 days of giving her this on her food once daily, all her hair has grown back and no more itchy spots. She looks amazing! We had been dealing with her condition for 6 months with no relief for her. Needless to say, I have purchased a second bottle and will keep doing so as needed. Thank you so much!

It really works
My almost 10 year old shorgi has started to limp and avoid climbing stairs, couches and beds. It was painful to watch. His hip appears to be bothering him especially after long walks. Found out about this oil and decided why not? I'll bring him to the vet if it doesn't work. I really didn't want to put him on meds. This oil worked so well within 3 days. It's like the limping and pain never happened. I have since changed his food to ones that contain salmon. But I really think it's this oil. Wonderful product. The pump does leak, but I just put this thing in the fridge inside a small plastic container to catch the drips. No mess.

Highly recommend
It's only been 2 weeks since we started giving our cat this supplement, and we already see a difference in his fur! He's already looking a little more dense, and fluffy! Although i would have to update back in a few more weeks to tell if he's shedding less. He really enjoys the taste of it too, as it seems. He's finishing up and licking the bowl clean! (He doesn't usually do that.) Only slight downside which obviously isn't a big deal (hence still five stars) is that his /poop/ smells.... AWFUL!!!!! Our litter which normally covered up the smell fairly well in the past...but not anymore!!!!! I have already recommended all my other pet parents to try out this supplement.
