great product great price
By Katy on Apr 13, 2021
My kitty Lily is a purebred sphynx, about 3 years old, and ever since she was a kitten she's slipped her knee out of joint when being too rambunctious or spastic. My vet recommended this supplement recently as a way to support her ortho issues (and maybe hit the vet less for acute fixes!). She takes this sprinkled over treats, especially those lickable kinds, quite easily and now looks forward to her daily "licksie". The product does seem to help her, and she's quite mobile...and it's a fraction of what I'd have to pay at the vet. Thank you Chewy!

Really works for my cats
By JLP70 on Apr 18, 2021
This supplement was recommended years ago by my vet for my 3year old male cat that was having urinary tract issues. He is now almost 14 years old and going strong . I believe in this supplement very much and know it has prolonged his life and well being. Both of my cats eat the soft pill with their food with no problem ! Highly recommend this for any cat ,but especially male cats !!

Miracle Pill!
By TrumpetCat on Mar 13, 2021
I have a 15 y.o. cat who has never been very active, but has gotten even more lethargic with her old age. She recently got to the point where whenever you picked her up or moved her she would yowl, and brushing her was nearly impossible. The vet in my life recommended these pills, and after just four days of sprinkling the pill into her wet food with some water each morning, I could see the difference! Not only has she stopped yelling, but she once again enjoys being brushed. She's even started putting on weight, since it's easier for her to move around and get to her food bowl. She doesn't notice the extra powder in her food once I've mixed it in, so she has no problem taking this medicine I have a 15 y.o. cat who has never been very active, but has gotten even more lethargic with her old age.

Works good!
By Bill on Apr 12, 2021
My 13yr old cat hurt his leg somehow and was limping. My vet recommended these pills. The results are gradual but after several weeks these pills had him walking normal again on many days although some days he still has a slight limp but I guess at his age he cannot recover 100%. But overall these pills have restored his help mobility. He has been taking them for a yr now.

This supplement is definitely working for my 13 year old Maine Coon!
By Carlygirl on Mar 5, 2021
I was noticing over the last couple months that my cat Carly was having a hard time jumping up on her usual spots and started to get a little stiff in her booty. She kinda bunny hopped down the stairs and then a limp on her right back leg developed as soon as the weather turned rainy. I could tell she was in pain and didn't really wanna move around too much, it looked hard for her to even get up! So heartbreaking! I did some research and bought this and she's doing SO MUCH BETTER! I didn't see results in 3 days or even a week like some reviews here, but in about 3 weeks I could tell it was helping her. Now at 4 weeks, she's walking around chatty as ever with a slight limp that is most pronounced I was noticing over the last couple months that my cat Carly was having a hard time jumping up on her usual spots and started to get a little stiff in her booty.

Now at 4 weeks, she's walking around chatty as ever with a slight limp that is most pronounced when she first wakes up and seems to get better as she moves around more. She still isn't jumping up on the higher places but I think it will come in time. Looking forward to what she looks like in 6 weeks and most likely will take her down to the maintenance dose at that time. I'm so grateful for this supplement and for everyone who took the time to write a review, it encouraged me to purchase and I'm so happy I did! … more

Good stuff
By AthenaAndPuaMom on Mar 14, 2021
First of all I like that this is in little capsules. No measuring, just pull it open & sprinkle on top of wet food. Athena eats that portion first, so either has no taste or tastes good! I started giving this to 7 year old Athena when I adopted a kitten. Although Athena had no obvious problems, she is a big girl & I figured a senior cat could use joint help. Especially when she's keeping up with Pua (now 10 months old). Athena won't answer when I asked if this is helping her. But I'm a senior citizen & glucosamine helps me!

helped with arthritis and lower urinary tract disease
By Frenchy on Feb 26, 2021
One of my 11 year old cats recently developed arthritis and was not squatting to urinate, which meant a mess outside of pan. 2 weeks on Cosequin and he started squatting like normal. He's on maintenance (every other day) but if I notice litter box issue will give to him every day for a few days. Vet said his mobility improved but still limited so this definitely made the difference. My other 11 year old cat has had urinary tract infections since a year old. She has chronic health issues which make her susceptible. This product seemed to help when she was young by discouraging sugars to adhere to bladder wall. Now she has lower urinary tract disease and mobility issues from neuropathy.

Worked Miracles for My Hefty Fella!
By Ameenah on Mar 18, 2021
I have a 12 year old, "full figured" cat who was showing signs of serious back pain. He went from wincing at the touch, to his regular adventurous self in, what seemed like, no time! It took about 2 weeks to start seeing the relief, but it has been AMAZING to watch him go back to his normal demeanor, routine, and antics :)

Definitely helped!
By SteveH on Mar 17, 2021
It's not a miracle cure for old age, but it definitely helped our old cat walk around better. She used to stay in the room with her food and litter all day. Since starting this product, she now roams the whole house again. Easy to use, you just open the capsule and sprinkle on their food.
