[stoneandglass]

holland and barrett in the UK are doing a penny sale (buy one full price get another for 1p) and they sell lysine pills. Could someone please let me know if they're suitable for cats?

I don't think I would give that to my sphynx. There are other
ingredients, that I am not sure of. You need to get pure L-lysine.
I only give pure to Izmae.

No don't bother they are caplets. You need powder or the type of pill you can open and empty out the powder inside.

This is what you need. I don't know if you can order from them or not. But, a good example.
As the supplement facts state, no other ingredients, also, powder form.
I order this myself. But, I only give 500mg a day. Hope this helps you.

This is the one I use (it's for cats and has a fish flavor/scent to it). I get it from my vet's office, but I know you can get in from the internet, Amazon, etc.

thanks for the replies everyone, I thought it was a little too easy hahaha! I'll get some online then

all the other ingredients are inert/ won't help or hurt the cat, but caplets are just tablets shaped like a capsule, so you'd have to grind them to powder first. tedious

You are welcome. They should have the L Lysine every single day and when they are ill, increase the amount daily.
