Felisyl L-Lysine Immune & Respiratory Support Salmon Flavored Gel for Cats & Kittens, 5-oz tube

It works excellently for my cat's stress-induced feline herpes as well as usually being great for coating pills for both of my cats. The consistency is unpredictable, though. Sticking it in the fridge helps to firm it up, but it's not supposed to be as watery as it is sometimes. The consistency has not had an effect on how well it works, but does effect how willing my cat is to actually want to take it. When it's thicker he will lick it from an oral syringe or off of a plate like it's a treat, but when it's thin he avoids it and it tends to melt pills unless it's straight out of the refrigerator. It's not Chewy's fault, the manufacturer needs to do more quality control. It does work either way, though, and hasn't made my cat sick or anything. It helps keep his runny, itchy eyes from turning into another bout of pneumonia, so definitely worth the price. Also, the salmon flavor is much preferred over the maple one (at least with my cats). I suggest getting 3ml oral syringes that come with caps if you buy this. They make it way easier to measure, administer, and refrigerate as needed.

I was worried Ernie wouldn’t like this because he’s not a salmon fan but he eagerly kicks this up. I squeeze it on my finger and he licks it off. He won’t let me out it on his paw nor will he touch it if I squeeze into a saucer. I’ve not seen an improvement yet with his eyes but maybe it’s too soon to tell. What I really need to do is get him to the vet to make sure there isn’t something more serious going on.

My cat actually likes the flavor of this which is shocking as she's very picky. The consistency is very watery so it'd be easier to administer in a syringe but I just goop some on my finger and wipe it in her mouth. She'd lick it up herself but she knows a treat is coming after and will snub it for that. This was for her herpes and allergy flare ups and in the past lysine knocked it out within a week. I'm going on 3 or so weeks and her flare is reduced but still there. She's also on a steroid which I think is doing the bulk of the work. Since it's easy to give her and she likes it I'll get a second tube and continue!

So can’t be sure, but in the past week my sweet little gal has fewer “agitated” moods. She was feral when I found her at 6 mos old this past summer, and with food, string toys, and lots of patience was able to get her inside in August. She has adapted well to indoor life so far but still has occasional mood swings and tantrums. Has been very chill all week tho. I found out a month after bringing her in that she has feline leukemia so I worry a lot for her. One thing thats recommended to keep her immune system up is L-Lysine, but I made a mistake months ago and bought the powdered version which is difficult to give her. She no longer likes wet food so I couldn’t just add to that and oddly has gotten insatiable abt her dry Iams. (If I’d have known she was going to become food addicted so suddenly I would’ve researched the perfect food for her, but at least she seems to be doing well on the Iams Pro Health so far.) In any case, I can’t get her to eat anything else besides the Iams now EXCEPT for: churu treats (which I’ve only just discovered), temptation treats (which I no longer give rlly) and this! She LOVES this. I just give her a dab on my finger once or twice a day and it’s so much easier than loading the powder in a syringe with water and scaring her half to death holding her head still. This is much easier, makes her happy, and I rlly do think it’s already having some positive affect. I could be wrong but even if so, it’s at least not making her sick and I’ve seen no ill affects, so hope it helps my girl stay healthy! Thanks Chewy!
