Purina Pro Plan FortiFlora Probiotic Supplement - For Cat - 30x1g

PURINA PRO PLAN FortiFlora for Cats is a daily probiotic supplement, and the most widely vet-recommended one there is. It contains a proprietary microencapsulated strain of Enterococcus faecium SF68, a beneficial bacterium that supports intestinal health and helps restore microflora balance.

The microencapsulation is the part that matters. Most probiotics lose viability before they get anywhere useful; the coating protects the bacteria through the stomach so a guaranteed level of live culture actually reaches the gut.

It comes as a palatable powder in single-dose sachets. Sprinkle one over the cat's normal food. Cats are famously difficult to give anything to, and the fact that most of them eat this willingly is a large part of why vets reach for it.

When to Use It

• Loose stools or diarrhoea from dietary upset, stress or a change of food
• During and after a course of antibiotics, which strip gut flora indiscriminately
• Flatulence and general digestive upset
• Periods of stress: a house move, boarding, a new pet, building work
• As a long-term daily supplement for a cat with a persistently sensitive gut

How to Use

• Sprinkle the contents of one sachet daily over your cat's regular food.

Please note: this is a complementary feed, not a medicine. A cat that stops eating, has persistent diarrhoea, blood in the stool or is vomiting needs a vet, not a supplement. Cats deteriorate faster than dogs when they stop eating, so do not wait.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry place. Keep sachets sealed until use to protect the live culture.
