Tomlyn Nutri-Stat Malt-Flavored High Calorie-Nutritional Gel for Dogs & Cats, 4.25oz

This is a gift from kitty heaven. My cat had stopped eating and was throwing up everything. Even touching her was making her gag. She had a terrible cough, and I thought she might have asthma with a secondary infection of some kind. Nope. The dreaded news that I still can't quite process: cancer. She has lung cancer that has spread to her esophagus. It's constricting her ability to swallow, my poor little baby. She has not seemed to be in pain, but the vet said she will starve to death if I don't euthanize her first. She has lost 5 pounds in 6 months. That's A LOT. Luckily, she was a chubby cat, so she had a little extra to spare, but she is scrawny now, and I feel my heart break just looking at her.The vet gave me anti-nausea meds, which I switch out with Pepcid AC (2.5mg) every other day. That keeps her from vomiting, but the killer has been getting her to swallow ANYTHING that isn't water or baby food. She immediately regurgitates anything solid before it even passes her esophagus. And if I try to put pills in her food, it's always hit or miss as to whether she'll eat it. If I dissolve things in water and syringe-feed it, she won't take it if the flavor is bad. So, this high-calorie nutritional supplement has been a double miracle! She likes the flavor and will eat a little every day, which I hope is helping put a bit of weight back on her, and the real HUGE bonus for me is that I can get a tiny crushed up pill for nausea down with it, so she gets her most important pill of the day in every morning now. God, thank you for making this product! It's such a simple little thing, but it makes her feel better, and it makes me so very grateful that I found it.If your cat doesn't like the flavor, I noticed it has fish oil in it. I tasted it, and cannot taste the fish oil, so perhaps rolling it in feline granules or dropping a bit of fish oil or maybe a smidge of petromalt (not enough to make a difference), would make it more palatable. I am just thankful my kitty likes it. She is going to have a little longer, and that little extra time is going to be a lot happier because of this product.

I am blown away by the effectiveness of Tomlyn Nutri-Stat gel for my furry friends. The malt flavor is a hit with both my cat and dog and they eagerly lick it up without any hesitation. As a pet parent, it's important for me to make sure my pets are getting all the necessary nutrients, and this gel has been a lifesaver in that regard. It's packed with high-calorie nutrition and helps maintain the health of my pets, especially during times when they may not have an appetite. The 4.25oz tube is easy to use and store, making it a convenient addition to my pet care routine. I highly recommend this product to any pet owner looking for a quick and easy way to provide their pets with the essential nutrients they need.

My little Chihuahua has to have two different medication‘s per day. This is perfect to hide her medication in and she will lick it right off a spoon.

It's effective and really did help put weight back on my very sick cat, but she hates the taste and won't eat it willingly. She wouldn't even eat it mixed in with her favorite canned food, so I had to put dabs of it on her lips so that she had to groom it off. Out of curiosity, I offered it to my other cats to see if it was just a case of the sick one being picky, and none of them wanted anything to do with it, not even our furry bottomless pit who typically will eat anything.If you can get them to eat it, this stuff does what it's intended to do, though. One of my elderly cats got sick and was dropping weight at an alarming rate. Our vet sent us home with some high calorie prescription food and an appetite stimulant, but she still wasn't putting weight back on. Giving her the Nutri-Stat daily helped get her back up to her normal weight.

Works great

Perfect to use if your kitty is refusing to eat hard food, just coat it and fool them! My kitty lost a lot of weight but this has really helped him pack on some pounds. He also loves the flavor.

I know from previous experience that this stuff can literally save a cat or dog's life or at least keep them hanging on until they improve with meds recommended by your veterinarian. Unfortunately I did not get to find out this time if it would have saved my cat. I immediately ordered it when I knew she needed it and it was promised to be there within 2 days. Two days came and went with it promised in another 2 days. And then you guessed it another two days. I didn't get it for 8 days after being ordered and sadly my cat did die. Had this been around to help boost her calorie content perhaps the story ending would have been different. I do still think it's a good product.
