Neither cat likes them... well sort of.
By Billinthehills on Feb 2, 2021
I have one cat whose Vet prescribed L lysine for her. She said it wouldn't hurt the other. So, I decided this would be an easy way to get the stuff into the cat. Neither cat would eat them. The one who the vet said needed it does find them interesting to bat around... that's it! HOWEVER, she will take the powdered form mixed in her daily wet food. These "treats" are soft but a little on the large side. All in all a good product but my guys are PICKY Order the smallest size bag first. Chewy is great about delivery so if your felines like 'em you can get more in a day or two.

They like the taste
By Mymenagerie on Feb 25, 2021
Not sure what difference this is doing to my cats' constantly running eyes, the jury is still out (I need to give it more time) but what's great is that the two that need it love the taste! I give them one each cut in a couple of pieces, and they think it's a treat.

The Best On The Market
By Jasperoni on Feb 19, 2021
I have tried many brands of lysine and this one comes out on top. One treat is a little large but you can cut it in two or four pieces and the cats love it. 500 mg without fooling around with having to give 12 treats or more to equal that.

Wonderful product!
By emmykval on Feb 23, 2021
My cats love these, though I do need to break the treats up for them. Vet recommended these for kitty whose eye was weeping, one week of these treats once per day and her eye is all better!

She won’t eat them
By Sharon on Feb 3, 2021
I wanted a way to get lysine into my cat’s diet. She is by nature a finicky eater. Unfortunately, she sniffs these and walks away.

Lifesaver!!
By OkFrancis on Nov 24, 2020
My kitties love these. They have FIP and vet recommended twice daily for each. In comparison to other brands they get the dosage they need in two versus 16. More importantly they are softer than optional brands which have the consistency of erasers my kitties can’t chew.

My favorite lysine treats
By 2nickname on Jan 16, 2021
My cats love them. Treats are soft which is better for my flat faced Persians. I just break them into a couple pieces and down they go.

Yummy for his tummy!
By zct6 on Jul 26, 2020
My 11 year old boy is a little on the heavy side and while he will eat almost anything I put in his bowl, this brand of lysine for his viral herpes flares is his favorite (and we've tried them all)! Gobbles them down like treats every time. For those having trouble finding a lysine supplement your kitty will eat, I would recommend buying small bags of different brands and try them all. The powder is also an option if you feed wet food - just mix it well. Good luck to all the herpes kitties like mine out there! They all deserve much loving!

Cats won’t eat
By carol on Aug 19, 2020
My cats will not eat these. They were not very soft and to big for one bite. Tried breaking them in two but they still wouldn’t eat them. The feral who visits occasionally would not eat them and he eats everything.

Nope not this one either!
By CLSING on Jul 20, 2020
After trying 2 other chews, my cat won't eat this one either. I was thinking that lots of favorable reviews, it might work. It is a soft chew, which is nice, but it is huge! I tried chopping it up into their food, and they ate around every piece. They just won't eat any of the chews. darn.
