Seems to cool itching quickly!

The smell of this gel is camphorated menthol that is very strong indeed. However, the benefits far outweigh the stench. I enjoy that smell when I’m congested, it clears up my sinuses, so I’m going to enjoy that smell now as it heals my precious but overly precocious kitty, Penny! I used a soft cone that looked like a slice of an orange, to protect the spots from being licked. Because, that’s what cats do. Unfortunately, my sweet girl figured out how to double cross me. She managed to get that cone off of her and hid it where I can’t find it, but by that time, the medication had worked its magic. Minutes only to afford her the relief she so desperately needed. So Yes, it stinks. But in an exceptionally great way. When you can’t take the smell of this blue gunk, just think of what you might put on your knees or joints to kill the pain of arthritis. You’d help yourselves wouldn’t you, despite the stench. Well. That’s what you’ll now do for your fur baby. Also, I used gloves to put it on. That protected me from the smell and any ill effects it would have on me. But definitely give Forticept Blue Butter Antimicrobial Gel a try for your kitty’s hot spots. It might be the one thing that saves them from harm as well as saving you a big vet bill. Oh, and my sweet Penny still loves me, even though she looked like she wanted to kill me in this photo.

My boyfriends favorite cat was attacked by something (we don't know for sure). So when we found his cat she had a very thick hair texture (like glue poured on her head). He didn't think much of it. To me who's had some cat experience i use mild soap and saline to clean the other cuts which over a few days healed. But there was a nail scratch right by the cats ear that I couldn't do much for. I got this and BAM it got better. It has a menthol oder. But neither really care and its was non toxic.

Our pup has suffered from itchy skin every summer . We have tried many things but recently read about Blue Butter. Saw the good reviews and decided to try it. It’s Amazing , started working right away for itch and after a week or so we are noticing fur growing back as well. It’s a big jar for the money so lasts a month or two with 2 applications a day . Our dog is 45 pounds for perspective . It can be used for minor wounds as well . Definitely recommend .

My chocolate lab gets pink flaky patches, mostly on his stomach but lately he’s been getting them in other places too. The vet said it was caused by allergies and prescribed a spray. It worked for a bit but then it stopped clearing the patches up. I then used a tea tree oil cream and that also worked for a bit and then stopped working. This stuff is so easy to apply, it’s not super thick and greasy like the tea tree cream, yet penetrates the skin a lot better than the spray i was using. So far it is doing a great job of clearing up the patches. It also works much faster than the two other products I tried. The only drawback is it’s a small jar and doesn’t go very far but it’s worth it because it works so well. Be warned though, as my goofball likes the smell of it so much he tried to eat it. LoL

My dog had an infected leg and paw and I've tried so hard to heal it but no improvement. It's swollen and weeping and scary. I can't take him to the vet which would normally be the first thing I did. I found this product and found the money to order it. I've been using it pretty liberally for about a week and the swelling is almost gone in his foot and totally gone in his leg. The infection looks so much better too. the bottom of his foot is still weeping, I think because he has to walk on it which keeps it irritated. We're keeping him off it as much as possible. I was scared we were going to lose him and he's our best boy. I wouldn't tell you it works if it didn't work for us.

It works super fast

This Forticept Blue ‘butter’ salve has helped our sweet German Shepherd girl deal with her itchy face. I can tell she feels the relief because she doesn’t tuck her

This Forticept Blue ‘butter’ salve has helped our sweet German Shepherd girl deal with her itchy face. I can tell she feels the relief because she doesn’t tuck her head under to try to keep me from putting it on her. She just sits there and then walks off when I release her. The sprays or ointments I have used in the past really annoyed her. Thank you for a great product.

Awesome Product!!

I have had dogs all my life and I have never found something that works as good as this does for hot spots or allergies! I have a GSD that is allergic to chicken

I have had dogs all my life and I have never found something that works as good as this does for hot spots or allergies! I have a GSD that is allergic to chicken. She breaks out on her belly often (she has a problem with eating the cat food..ugh) and this will make it all go away in a day or two. She even knows when I pull it out that she is going to get relief. Works great!
