VetriScience Laboratories - GlycoFlex 3, Hip and Joint Supplement for Cats, 60 Bite Sized Chews

Been using it for 2 months. Cat refuses to eat it so I mix it with wet food. Don’t see any difference in my cat

First of all, the cats eat them. I've tried so many others in the past and the cats sniffed and walked away, but they have both been eating these consistently. The other important thing about these is that they contain green-lipped mussel, which has been shown to have the right omega fatty acids to reduce inflammation and help rebuild cartilage. After 3 months of the recommended dose, one of the cats is jumping once again to his favorite highest perch. The other one has never jumped anywhere but she is at least standing up much more easily and is now open to getting more exercise.

While I don't love the price, my cat is so much better after she started getting these every day. She tries to tear my hand off to get at them so no issues with flavour for her, and she's much more comfortable. She's back to grooming her back, where she has arthritis, and her limp is barely noticeable. Definitely recommend, I'll be on the lookout for a cheaper source though.

Good product and service

I waited a few weeks after administering this to my cat in order to provide a clear and useful review. My 14 year old toothless cat Teddy loves these (thank goodness!) and now comes running when he hears the bag being picked up. I cut the treat into about 9 small slices and he gobbles them right down. His younger sister (3 yrs old) always comes running at that time and wants some too, so I end up giving her something else more age appropriate for her. They both wolf their treats down and are happy, and so am I! As to the efficacy of this product for my 14 year old cat, previously he was getting stiff and groaning whenever he would get up and also whenever I would pick him up. He walked with very stiff legs. He also sometimes missed when jumping up from the floor to the couch, and pretty much stayed in one place all day. I've been giving him one treat daily (he's 9 pounds) and after a week or so, he stopped groaning when getting up from a nap or when we picked him up. He hasn't missed on a jump from the floor to the couch since about the second week, and is walking less stiffly. He's a Persian and a very, very laid back cat who was never one for running much, or doing anything particularly energetic. But the other day I heard cat feet galloping in from the kitchen to the living room (we have wood floors) where I was sitting. I assumed it was my younger cat but no, it was my 14 year old who ran into the room! Of course he laid right down and went to sleep (as he does) but it made me happy to see this improvement. My vet also is familiar with these and says she has seen good results in other cats. I will continue giving these to him as they seem to work pretty well and I am grateful for the improvement and obvious lessening of pain for him!

Palatable and helpful
