Does this taste like dog/cat food? Would like to be sure my tablets are okay. Definitely doesn't taste like calcium supplement.

You are right! There is a definite difference in smell. I couldn't swallow the huge tablets--tried crushing a tablet which then filled 2 empty capsules the size of regular Bone-Up. But I could still smell the Ultra Bone-Up through the capsule. It is an odd smell, and you might have found an apt description! In addition to the "JarroSil Silicon", Ultra Bone-Up also contains "MBP" (Milk Basic Protein), so the MBP is probably the cause of the odd taste/smell.

Honestly, I can't say that I have taken it regularly like I should have. I didn't notice any immediate effects. Furthermore, after researching Garcinia Cambogia a little more, I noted that the HCA in it can be negatively affected by calcium, rendering it worthless. Unfortunately there is calcium in this particular brand, which makes me doubt its effectiveness. I also wonder how I can eat anything I want with this and still lose weight if I have to cut calcium out of my diet completely for it to work. I'm a bit of a skeptic here, but you might want to seek out one that does not contain calcium if you want to try it.

Either is acceptable. Cats are by nature carnivores so bone is the natural choice. Also bone meal has more phosphorus, which is needed by kittens, than seaweed but both are acceptable for adult dogs.

I am not sure what it tastes like alone. probably like ground chalk. I mixed it with something else, even for my dogs. for them I used gravy added dog food and mixed it in or put it in the center of a peanut butter sandwhich I fed them. Mixed in soft, canned food worked for the cats and a mashed banana for the rabbit.

Laura, undoubtedly it would have the same nutritional value if not better. Just check the amt of calcium (on the label) which states that 1 tsp = 1000mg of calcium and compare that to your bone calcium to get the equiv measurement. If your kitty is eating bones from his food that would be the best, but if you get bone calcium from powder then there are different forms of calcium some more absorbable than others. If it were me I would give him the seaweed calcium which comes with other trace minerals.

It doesn't really smell like anything. Definitely not Salmon. As for the taste, I'm unsure. I know my cats loved it though.

looked at pkg. no ref to feline or cats anywhere. only dogs. guessing not for cats or they would be marketing them that way as it would increase their sales. must be wrong 'other ingredients' for feline digestion. also, the treats are bisquit like texture and quite large so cats may find quite Unappealing.

To answer your question..yes. It's the same supplement that people take. You can buy people L-Lysine, it's probably cheaper, however, L-Lysine tastes very salty and once I found out what it taste like I bought this for my cat. My cat loved this and took it without any problem. With the regular L-Lysine tablets for people I had to crush the tablet and then put it in wet food. It still tasted salty. It was something I wouldn't eat and wouldn't make my cat eat either. This supplement is a treat for my cat now.

I use Iceland Pure for both my dogs and cats. Like you I tried Grizzly first. I have 3 cats who don't like salmon, they wouldn't eat the food with Grizzly, but will eat it with Iceland Pure. It does have a slight odor, but definitely better than any others I've tried. I've noticed a distinct difference in the old dogs and cats since starting them on essential oils. They move more comfortably and their coats look more vibrant.

As far as I know, this cat food is not Holistic. It is grain and glutton free. I use it as a night time snack for my kitties and they do well with it. I alternate it with the turkey meal grain free limited ingredients flavor. Cats from 2 years to 16 years are eating it with no tummy upsets and it is about 20% (max) of their diet.

The tabs in the bottle I have smell like that too. I figured that is why the dogs are willing to eat the tablets straight. However, it is my first bottle so I do not know if it is normal or not.

I'm not sure how much calcium is in this product.. I have used it for years on all my litters..springers and corgis. especially to transition them from moms milk to dog food. I really like it.

This is a food, not a vitamin supplement. It has a very cheesy flavor. We are vegans and I use it in my marinara sauce when making spaghetti. It has no calcium or magnesium and the B vitamins are not balanced.

There is 500 mg of glucose in the tabs. They recommend 1 tablet for every 20 lbs of body weight. Has 100 mg of Vitamine C, 1.12 mg. zinc, .112 mg. of copper & .09 mg. of manganese. I do believe they have helped my dogs, I have 2 older dogs & they seem to love them, I also give them regular fish oil capsules you can purchase anywhere. I figure if they are good for me they should work for dogs & cats as well... :) Hope this helps you & your pups...

I have been very pleased with this product. I have 'senior' cats and they are doing so well with this. I like that there is no fillers and the cats eat very well. They will be 20 the end of February. I would say it is very low-carb, as the others have shared. If you are needing another answer I would write the company direct.

The vet recommended this medication for our cat. There's a particular kind of canned cat food that she specially loves, so I open the capsule and mix it in with the cat food. It's a turkey and salmon flavor, so fairly strong, and she doesn't seem to mind the flavor of the capsule mixed in. Greenies also has pill pockets for dogs, I think. You could try one of those.

So says the list of the ingredients on the packaging. I only feed my cats this brand and I trust them. You can go on their website and see the list for yourself.
