Nutri-Cal for Cats

Nutri Cal is a high-calorie supplement for cats designed to make picky and aging cats consume enough nutrients. The primary purpose of Nutri Cal for cats is to boost appetite and to provide extra fuel to pets that need it. This high-calorie nutrition gel has a concentrated blend of minerals, protein, vitamins, and fatty acids (omega 3, 6, and 9). However, Tomlyn Nutri Cal is intended for intermittent supplemental use only and should not replace your cat's regular diet. The high-calorie nutritional gel is ideal for picky eaters, cats facing physiological issues, and old cats.

There are testimonials from pet owners worldwide that Nutri Cal helped stimulate their pet's appetite, but it's not an appetite stimulator. Nutri cal is for when your pet is not eating his usual food for long. This could be for various reasons like anxiety, stress, physical illness, post-surgery, or just being picky. The delicious malty flavor of the supplement will ensure that even the fussiest of cats will consume it and, in the process, receive caloric or nutritional intake of vitamins and minerals.

Yes, as per the official website of Tomlyn, Nutri Cal is safe for kittens to consume. However, the recommended dosage for a kitten is much less than an adult cat for obvious reasons. While pet parents should give adult cats three teaspoons of Nutri Cal per 10 pounds of their body weight daily, kittens only need 1/2 teaspoon of the highly palatable supplement gel.

Nutri Cal is a flavored oral gel that supports a healthy appetite. It provides much-required supplemental caloric or nutritional intake for animals with eating issues. Additionally, Nutri Cal also helps maintain a healthy coat because of concentrated fatty acids like Omega 3, 6, and 9. It's a concentrated source of vitamins, protein, and minerals to help fussy eaters get the required nutrients to maintain good health.

According to the maker of the Nutri Cal, the caloric supplement gel is highly palatable, which makes it easy to administer. To acquaint your cat with the flavor, put a small amount of gel in the cat's mouth. Once the cat has adjusted to the supplement's taste, give 1.5 teaspoons for every 10 pounds of body weight daily, and in case your cat is not eating the whole meal, increase the dosage to 3 teaspoons per 10 pounds of the body weight daily.

Nutri Cal is an intermittent and supplemental gel to give to your cat when it's not eating. A cat or kitten may stop eating for various reasons, including hairballs, sudden food switches, stress, kidney issues, or other such illnesses. Not eating causes a nutritional imbalance in cats and may lead to permanent kidney or liver disease. Therefore, if you see your cat not feeding, you can deliver a caloric intake until it starts feeding, usually again.

Like every other consumable, Nutri Cal also comes with a shelf life. Every tube of Tomlyn Nutri Cal has an expiration date printed on it, and post that date; it's not recommended to give it to your cat. While you can still administer it to the cat post expiry, the nutrient content of the supplement will lose potency after the set date. To ensure that it doesn't go bad for whatever reason, store it in a cool place and out of direct sunlight.

The bulk of the composition in Nutri Cal is crude fat, crude protein, moisture, calcium, potassium, omega fatty acids, D-Pantothenic Acid, and various vitamins. The calorie content in Nutri Cal is 4,760 kcal/kg or 28 kcal per teaspoon.

The recommended dosage of Nutri Cal for healthy cats is 1.5 teaspoons for every 10 pounds of the body weight and three teaspoons per 10 pounds for cats that are not eating. This is a daily dosage, which you can give all at once or split into two times a day. It's also recommended to consult your veterinarian before administering it. It will help to know how much your cat needs and how often.

Nutri Cal has an appealing malty flavor, which makes it very palatable to cats. You have to ensure that your cat is acquainted with the taste of the oral gel. To make your cat get used to the high-calorie supplement, take a pea-sized quantity of the supplement and place it in the cat's mouth. The cat should generally like its taste right away; in that case, you can switch to the usual dosage of 1.5 or 3 teaspoons, depending on the dietary requirement of the cat.
