My kitties are always too nervous to eat anything in the vet's office! The treats come in many flavors, but my kitties prefer chicken. They are costly, but so worth it when it comes to giving them their medicine.

Where does one purchase lysine?
thanks.

You can get lysine from Wal-Mart in the vitamins/supplements section. They come in 500 mg tablets. Just grind them up between 2 spoons and sprinkle on wet food. I buy the big container of Lysine powder from the health food store. Grinding the tablets got old quick! It lasts us anywhere from 6-9 months depending on how much we have to give Hannah.

if you want to skip a step, it also comes in capsule form - just open the caps. or in a powder, altho i've only seen that form online.
