Liquivite may be used to feed and rehydrates sick, convalescent, post-operative or anorexic cats, which cannot or will not take solids or drink liquids. Liquivite is smooth enough for syringe feeding when appetite is absent, and readily consumed as appetite returns. Importantly, Liquivite may help to replace fluid when dehydration has occurred, or is a risk.
Essential vitamins and minerals are included, at levels suitable for cats under stress conditions. Liquivite contains fish oil, supplying Omega 3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA, which may boost the immune system. A pre-biotic is included, to feed the beneficial bacteria in the gut and rosemary may act as a natural anti-oxidant, is also added, as is yeast.
