Love those treats for my cats!! They are big and chewy, so I do need to slip them in 2 or 3 pieces, but it's easy to do with your fingers. They smell a lot though. They also help my cats with cold and sneezing. My one Siamese sneezes constantly and with those chews, it's a lot better.I've been buying them on Amazon for years as they are cheaper then at the vet. I 100% recommend.

My cat gets easily stressed and likes to hide under the bed. That is, util I started him on this as recommended by my vet.I use these treats along with the Feliway Diffuser.His attitude and health has changed, not dramatically, but enough that he doesn't hide as much nor get as sick.I do have to cut them in small pieces and mix with other treats as he has no teeth but also because he doesn't like the taste.It probably took about a week of daily treats for an improvement in his demeanor.I'm so glad these have helped my cat.

Update: After I submitted the review about how my cat didn't like the taste of last package. I went back and looked at the bag and saw that it almost expired. I got this on Oct 20, it has expiration date Dec 9. So no, I'll not be ordering any of supplements for my cats online anymore since I can't be sure what I am getting are not old products.I've gotten this item a few times. What I've discovered is sometimes my cats would refuse to eat it. I believe occasionally I may have received a bad batch that has different smell or texture that the cats dislike. I'll be looking for new brand that has consistent quality control.

My cats hate the taste and smell. They’re also really large for a cat, so I have to break it down each time I give (or try to) it to them.

Great for your picky cat. They treat the. Like treats so you give them the mineral they need but they think they're being spoiled.

Notre chatte de 17 ans à commencé à avoir plusieurs symptômes. Respiration sifflante,yeux qui coulent, fatigue, perte d appétit,etc.Après avoir essuyer de lui donner des antibiotiques en capsules pour résoudre le problème. Elle les recrachait ou les vomissais.Ensuit un une second antibiotique liquide a lui donné avec une seringue à fonctionner après 2 semaines. Cependant le problème est revenu tranquillement.J ai donc fait des recherche et tomber sur ce produit que j ai acheté.Après quelques jours avec un comprimé par jour les symptômes ont disparu. Puisque que notre chatte est âgée et son métabolisme plus lent. Un seul comprimé à très bien fonctionné.Une fois les symptômes disparus, maintenant nous lui donnons 1/2 comprimés seulement chaque matin coupé en plus petit morceau.Je sui EXTRÊMEMENT satisfait de ce produit qui a super bien fonctionné pour notre chatte . J aurais jamais imaginé que ça aurait fonctionné à ce point. 🙏

I tried to be a cheap charlie and ordered a different lysine feline brand with more chews, for less money: don't do it! The other brands do not have enough Lysine to be helpful to your cat, and mine had to eat 8 times the chews to equal Optixcare.Optixcare has 500 mg of Lysine per chew!!! It has made a noticeable and improved difference in my cat's health and well-being.Yes, the chews are big in size, but I just break them up, there relatively soft, and worth seeing my cats health really improve. 1 to 2 daily depending in your cats weight is all you need.My 2 year old cat has (FHV)-Feline Herpes Virus, which is not curable, but is treatable. Was found as an abandoned stray very ill, with symptoms of runny gooey eyes, coughing and sneezing. Now with general good care, a sensitive stomach diet and the Optixcare (l-lysine), it has improved his quality of life.

Finally- a lysine chewable that my cats are excited to eat! The vet has had me give my 14-year-old cat lysine for years to support his respiratory health, but mixing it in his food hasn’t been effective and his respiratory health was getting worse. But after a few days of these chews he’s stopped sneezing and is back to normal. I’ve tried other chewables and pastes before but he and my other cat (even the dog too) refuse to eat them. I’ll be keeping them on these!

my cat will eat it only if I mix into other wet foods . Was hoping for a treat cats would be interested in. Nevertheless maybe too healthy for my cat - after all eating only healthy not fun at all

Whenever my cats' allergies start acting up, I give them one of these chews. They are feeling better in days! Much cheaper than what I had paid at the vet's office! My one cat refuses to eat it so I have to chop it up and hide it in her wet food.Definitely recommend!Fast shipping

I bought three brands of l-lysine chews for my cats with terrible herpes virus--recommended by the vet to start this. This one was the most potent, and softest. I break each treat into 2 or 3 smaller pieces and my picky eaters gobble them up. The Felisyl brand they liked as well but you have to use 4 chews to make the 1000mg my vet wants them to have. The other brand is the pet naturals and my cats don't care for these as much. They're super hard--even hard for me to break and hard for them to eat. Also not as strong as this product in dosage. All are good products and this is simply a review of which brand worked best for my cats. End result, after finishing all three brands over 3 months, the herpes symptoms are WAY down. It was worth the cost.

I have tried all of the lysine treats amazon offers and i think i am sticking with this one. there's a pattern that my sweet but runny eyed cat displays (he was exposed to feline herpes as a kitten and one eye frequently weeps, gets red, irritated and crusty...lysine helps and is a lot better for him than the steroids the vet would otherwise prescribe)...elroy loves treats and will eat any lyscine treat initially, but then gets turned off and fights eating them. (though he never tires of the kitty crack treats you get at the store, like temptations)...but this one, being the highest dose treat, works the best. right now, he is still eating them voluntarily most of the time and because of the high dosage only needs to eat one (maintenance) or two (actively runny eye) a day. i break them in half and sometimes mix them with the treats he loves and he eats them. sometimes he turns his nose up (gives it the paw shake that means, take it away) and i break them in half and gently push them in his mouth while holding his head up. since i sometimes have to do this, being able to do it once (instead of multiple times with other treats) works best for us. he is still eating these voluntarily most of the time, which is longer than with the other treats. so think we are switching for good. lysine does work -- it stops my human cold sores when they are still developing...helps elroy's runny eye...and boosts both our immune systems. (i take HUMAN L-lysine from the drug store. the treat aren't THAT temping. ) so if your cat is on a lysine regime...i recommend these for taste, tolerance, and the high dosage.
