HomeoPet Feline Skin and Itch

We have a 12 year old female bengal that's had allergy issues for over half her life, her specific issues being itching, resulting in overgrooming. Her 'normal' issue is chewing on her lower belly back to her tail and her inner rear thighs. Often time, she ends up with sores. We're constantly on the watch to go 'help' her with the itching, though us softly itching her (hands, variety of measures and other tools) rarely seems to actually help. Either she'd stop from being so tired of it herself or so tired of putting up with us trying to help.We've tried orally administering Zyrtec, Benadryl, and a variety of other packaged retail products and nothing helped. A syringe wouldn't work (see below) and she'd detect it in her food and not eat. And she's one that's very particular on her food -- Orijen or Acana only for kibble, and a specific wet canned food or TJ tuna. She won't touch anything else, and as finicky as she is, she can definitely tell when another flavor is introduced.Only once we saw a vet and ended up with steroids and Atopica did she see some relief. But, eventually, she reacted poorly to Atopica. Towards the end of the 90 day bottle, she'd start throwing up. We stop the Atopica, she'd stop throwing up. Put her back on it "too soon" (had to wait over a month) and she'd immediately start throwing up again. This led to an adverse reaction to any oral meds for her. She'd start drooling more than you'd imagine a cat could any time we tried any oral meds. Enough we went a couple years between trying, just tried again out of desperation before trying this product, and she reacted the same way -- super drool.With how bad her issues were, we went through the expensive dermatologist (many vet visits, which she hates), testing, and allergy shot process. Along the way, she was on/off steroids, Atopica, etc. The entire allergy process was a waste of time, as we made it through the "up to a year" of adaptation time and saw no improvement. Then we knew a move was coming up, talked to the vet about it, and they said to continue -- it was just taking longer for her. Fast forward to being in the new location (which is going to be many locations, as we're going to be mobile) and we went to a vet here to get a steroid and Atopica again. We talked over the history with the vet and she immediately called out the allergy shots not being a workable solution, as they're tailored for your location and surrounding fauna (trees, grasses, pollens, etc.). Moving locations obviously doesn't accommodate that. Yet, the dermatologist had directed us to continue -- either ignorant of that fact or just wanting to keep us on the hook for as long as they could.So, the move happened, which compounded the allergies with stress and things went from bad to worse. That eventually led us to discover this product, with claims of unflavored (though ingredients clearly indicate a flavor would be present) and enough positive reviews to make it worth a shot.Anyways, all that was to explain we've been through A LOT trying to give our girl a pleasant life. I cannot imagine being itchy all the time, to the point of exhaustion during high allergen or stress periods. That's why we've tried so much to deal with it.Everything that we've done, and to only just come across this which seems to actually work! We've only given it to her for a day so far and immediately noticed a reduction in itching shortly after the first dose, administered in a small amount of tuna. As far as we can tell, she can't tell it's there -- no hesitation in eating and she licks the bowl clean still. She's been resting more peacefully, grooming is more normal (a lot less chewing and normal licking/cleaning), and actually otherwise engaged/active today (going into day 2 of treatment). Truly amazing if this keeps up.UPDATE a bit over a month in: It’s still helping, but not as effective as it initially was. We’d started with 5 drops, and have ramped up to 7 drops (as it appears to be a 1 drop per 2 lbs dosage if you extrapolate the basic chart) and it hasn’t improved. It still helps her not itch constantly, but she’s back to itching a lot and for long bouts, resulting in sores again. I don’t know if this is a product you have to cycle like some supplements, but it’s barely over a month, so that’s a short relief period to then have to cycle off/on. We have an organ meat supplement coming we’re going to try alongside this. And maybe try cycling off this product once that’s been introduced to her diet, to see what’s truly working and if either or both are the ongoing care solution. Will report back either way.

Great result with my Cat! Gave it to him only once a day plus put it in his water. No issues with him drinking the water or any signs of it tasting bad. Took about a week for his symptoms to clear.My other cat also was drinking from the same water and it didn't have any adverse affects on him either.Both cats were noticeably softer too!

Got this as my cat kept chewing and biting herself, perhaps it was an allergy or pyschological. I did change her food to grain free and also added two drops each time. She could taste it so I could only add two to three drops max each round. I think she is biting herself lesser now? Or it might be due to changing her food to grain free? She hasn't completely stopped biting herself, and it might just be pyschological

There's been an ongoing battle with my very opinionated 12 year old cat to find something to ease her constant itching and scratching. Anything and everything I tried, from vet prescribed to over the counter was flat out rejected. She would smell it in her food, in her water, in her treats and would not touch it. When resorted to shoving a pill down her mouth she took off and didn't return for two days.Then I ordered this. I was literally reduced to praying she would not reject it. She didn't! OMG!!Then I was praying it works. It did!! Immediately I noticed she stopped her frantic itching and scratching.What a relief! We are actually able to sleep through the night.The bottle is difficult to open and when I opened it, the top fell in the water bowl spilling half of it. I requested a replacement and received one the next day. That's what I call service! Thank you seller.If your cat has the nose of a rescue dog and personality plus (i.e opinionated) this will do the job. Expensive, YES. BUT IT WORKS.

Great little addition for feline care when they are experiencing itchy and dry skin. I can see the difference in her skin, the flakiness is gone and she is less bothered. Thank you!
