I've been studying the ingredient list for BitR.

1.36 g of Lysine is listed per 120 g meal.

Is it therefore necessary to add more lysine to each meal? One would think not, but then again...

Thoughts?

Thanks.

In my opinion thats fine. We really only use it with cold flares up, at that point I would then add an additional amount.

"Recommended Dosage
Many Sphynx cat owners use Lysine treats or powder the food to boost their Sphynx immune systems. Most people use about 250 mg -500 mg sprinkled over food, 250 mg being the most common for a "maintenance" type dose and 500 mg if your kitty has symptoms of a cold or herpes flare up (see your vet for proper dosage)."

Thanks. And boy Max is loving the raw. Mind, I suspect he likes anything that once had eyeballs.
