Cats notoriously hate water and food additives. The feline smelling capacity is something like 1000x more acute than humans, so they'll turn their nose at anything.

My Persian-Himalayans are sisters with very different personalities. One will eat anything, while the other refuses most everything. When I saw the "flavorless" label on this, I was hoping the manufacturer wasn't lying.

I've been putting a half-squirt in their water dish, and no problemo! They didn't shudder and run away, so that's good. They both are fine with it. I was expecting that they'd despise this, but I lucked out. While I don't know what your cats will think, I can tell you that my cats are pickier than other cats we know (and love).

I will post here again in a few months about the efficacy. I'm trying to prevent expensive dental treatments, so we'll see if this helps. My cats will NOT let me examine their teeth, so there's no way for me to tell how well this is working right now. I'll let my vet tell me if she thinks their teeth look better.

This is a veterinarian-approved product and is made in the USA, so I'm somewhat comfortable with the ingredients. It has rosemary extract in it, so I'm shocked that my Picky Petunias will drink it.

The bottle this comes in is very small, but it will last a long time with cats, because you use 1 pump per 2 cups, or a 1/2 pump per cup. Hopefully this will prevent two $250 dental cleaning and anesthesia treatments for my two little felines!

Update: 4/6/11 At a routine check-up for one of my cats today, the vet thought that her teeth looked good. Will post again if something changes.
