I was grocery shopping today, and while checking the pet isle to see if they had the Pheremone (sp) plugs...I saw this stuff calle Vita Gravy.....
So I said "what the heck"....I got it.......

Its some holistic type stuff...chauked full of vitimins, taurine, and antioxidents...

The kits seem to dig it........

but i was wondering if any of you have used this product, and if you would recommend it.............????

I'd like a TCS vote of approval before I continued with this stuff......


thanx

Do you have the bottle handy? If you post the ingredients one of the nutritional "experts" can analyze them and let you know. Personally, I think its probably overkill, and more about marketing than filling a real nutritional need. The advertising and marketing techniques that have been used to sell human food for decades are starting to spill over into pet food marketing, and there seems to be a lot of gratuitous products poppin up lately, IMO. It prob. wont hurt the kits but prob. isn't necessary either. Just my $.02

I gave it to my boys too. They really loved it. I was afriad that on top of the balanced meals we feed them that the gravey might be too much "good stuff". I only gave it to them twice a week...kinda like a treat. I think that if you give it to your kits in moderation it should be fine. They prob. wouldn't put it on the market though if it wasn't safe for daily consumption. Lets face it, not all cat owners are as informed as us.
