Flatulance & Bad Breath

Question
We have a year old cat that was a rescue stray. She had been living in the shelter for almost a year so she was probably a kitten when found.

I've had many cats in my life and this cat has daily sulfurous smelling farts (some days are worse), she also has foul breath.

She is completely an inside cat and we are really good about not feeding her human food, matter of fact we don't. We have experimented with soft food vs. hard food and have found that if we keep her on just the hard food her gas is less but still just as smelly, I mean REALLY smelly.

Never knew a cat that could "cut the cheese" like she does!

Answer
HI-  YOU need to make some changes in her diet...I bet we can fix this overgrowth of yeast in her belly??
First off - Please get her onto Innova For Cats - This is a grain free dry cat food...Excellent and 99% meat.

Next, put her on some Acidophilus 1 Billion CFUS - Just give her 1/2 of this pill per day - YOU can hide it in some tuna fish - Crush the pill it she won't take it in the solid form.
Do this dosage for 1 month ...Then, cut down to 1/2 EVERY OTHER DAY-


Last - Please call Joan and order NuVET Plus powder for Felines -
This will cost you about .50 cents per day and will KEEP The VET AWAY..  Immune System booster and helps with digestion, too
