Hey everyone!
I just have a quick question for those of you who supplement with salmon oil...how much do you give each cat, in terms of milligrams? I am considering starting my collie on salmon oil capsules because her coat is just not in as a good a condition as it should be, and she has a little arthritis inflamation in the winter....so, then I realized it wouldn't hurt to give the cats a little salmon oil as well, but I just don't know how much they need.
Also, would salmon oil have any positive effects on hairballs? I mean, it's supposed to reduce shedding, so theoretically, that would cut down on the hairballs, right? Maggie is still struggling with regurgitation at times, although feeding her pumpkin sometimes has helped a little. But if the salmon oil could help with this, that would be one more incentive for me to buy some and try it. I really need to get her to keep her food down and put on some weight...poor skinny kitty!
