Oxbow Critical Care Carnivore Small-Pet Supplement, 340-gm bag

I have used this supplement for kittens, puppies and especially ferrets. It has been a go to even more when they are elderly. It is not harsh on the stomach and it a wonderful source of protein. I always mix it with a bit of Pedilyte to give them extra electrolytes. Once open, I usually put in a jar or container and store it in the fridge. It is great to use when you fur babies are not thriving, sick, or just a boost once a week. I have a eleven year old ferret who eat this everyday with his chicken and he is still spunky and eating like a champ.

This stuff has literally saved my leopard gecko. He got stung on the tongue by a hook worm and refused to eat. Administered with a syringe it has kept him alive while his tongue heals.

Shortly after our ferret's surgery she started going downhill. She wasn't eating or drinking enough, and she was almost lethargic. The vet had us start her on Oxbow's Critical Care Carnivore to give her nutrition while also providing much needed hydration. At first she didn't want it, and I had to syringe-feed her. I would try holding the warm dish of formula up to her before resorting to the oral syringe. After several days, she actually started licking it on her own when I held up the dish. Shortly thereafter I would just hold her on my lap while holding the dish and she would clean the dish. She is fully recovered. Her vet said I can keep her on it since she likes it so much, so a few times I day I prepare her dish of warm formula and once I set it down she goes right to it.
