   I love Cosequin!, August 13, 2007

   I have a 4 1/2 year old cat who’s suffered from sterile cystitis since she was a young kitten. This is rare in cats so young so it took a long time and many tests to figure out what was wrong with her. Finally our vet mentioned that there was a possibility she had sterile cystitis and that we should try Cosequin and see if it worked. Our first night trying it this skittish kitten who hated pills licked up half of the powder before I could even mix it in with the food! She loved it! Within about a week her symptoms were dissipating and we stopped noticing as much blood in her urine. A few weeks later she was just fine, obviously not in pain anymore. She’s been on these pills about 3 years now, taking one nearly every night in a small amount of babyfood, and we’ve only seen a couple small, short outbreaks of her sterile cystitis, and only during periods of very high stress (such as when we moved).

   While it doesn’t break the bank at the vet, it’s MUCH cheaper on here, more than half off the price I’ve noticed. Also we’ve never had a problem with it showing up late or damaged. Since our cat could very well be on this for the rest of her life I’m so glad we have a place to buy it from that saves us so much money!

   How to make Cosequin palatable to cats, December 8, 2009

   This product works very well. I have a suggestion for anyone who can’t get their cat to eat this product sprinkled over food (I’m with you on not wanting to shove what I call a “horse pill” down a cat’s throat.

   Purchase some Brewers yeast flakes, which are usually available at health food stores and some grocery stores. Mix the contents of one pill with an equal amount of the yeast flakes, then mix that with a little water until it forms the consistency of stiff dough. Make this into pea-sized amounts with your hands. I have never had a cat that would not go absolutely nuts over these little “treats.” In fact, most of the cats I have given this to start to beg for it after a few days! It only takes a couple minutes each day to prepare.

   Our vet even began using this to pill some cats!

   You can make up three or so separate amounts and refrigerate them, but more than that and it will mold.

   This product is worth trying this! Good luck.

   Great Product. It Really Works!!, June 24, 2005

   I started my 14 year old cat on this when she started having problems with her joints. It has made a huge difference in her quality of life. She jumps and runs around like she is 10 years younger. I wholeheartedly recommend it for the older cat with joint problems. It’s easy to give her as it’s in a capsule form and I easily open the capsule and sprinkle the powder on her wet food, then mix it in and she eats it up and doesn’t know anything is different in her food. As I said a great product.
