Brilliant for my very sick bunny in GI stasis!
Been absolutely amazing. My bunny is very very unwell and not eating. Been recommended this by multiple vets. Easy to use. My other two bunnies love the taste and keep licking it off her face! Definitely recommend having on hand. I’ll buy another shortly as a precaution!

Very good critical care mix
This is very good quality and should be in every emergency kit for your furry family member It's packed full of so good nutrients and helps recover your furry friend The powder with a measuring spoon included in the pack is easy to mix with water and blends very well Like for my Cheeto 🧡 he needs syringe feeding for a while after yesterday's dental surgery he slowly tried already to eat his normal food oxbow critical care is to help him and he like it very much because normally he can be a fussy eater

Life saver
This is necessary for any guinea pig first aid/medical emergency kit! I always have one on hand in case they stop eating due to illness & they’ve saved my guinea pigs lives before. They’re expensive for what they are, but (fingers crossed) you shouldn’t need it often so it can last a while & it’s WAY cheaper to have your own on hand than buying the exact same thing in smaller quantities through a vet when needed, so I recommend buying to save in the long run. Mine seem to like the smell, but I usually have to add quite a bit more water than recommended and use a syringe for thicker fluids, it’s very effective when used as advised & can be the difference between life & death for pigs!

A must have for all guinea pig owners.
We have used this for our guinea pigs for many years when they are not eating as normal, after it was originally recommended by Ellie - The Guinea Pig Vet. We always keep a sachet ready. Guinea pigs have to eat regularly, or gut stasis can occur, that can be fatal. If they are off their food (which should consist of 80% highest quality timothy hay), we feed four times a day in a 1ml syringe with the end cut off. We aim to get up to 10 syringes in if we can each feed, but don't ever force a guinea pig to feed that is not swallowing - just take your time between increments. It has got our guinea pigs through some serious medical conditions and is particularly invaluable post-op. Great stuff!

Good product
Used for years. Does what it says, easy to mix and reasonably easy to pull up into a syringe for feeding.

Lifesaver
Vital to keep in small animal first aid kit. Can be a lifesaver for small poorly animals. Good price. Must taste nice as some will even eat it from a bowl.

Great product
Great productive I’m convinced this and infocal Has saved my rabbits life atleast 3-4 times. When he has GI stasis. Advice - watch out for early signs of being lethargic and not eating. Always have supple of critical care and better be safe than sorry to use it if your rabbit isn’t eating. It can buy you some time whilst you go to the vet

Great.
It looks like my guinea pig loves it. It's good for health recovery after surgery or when too old.

Parfait pour cochon d'inde
Un indispensable ! On apprécie l'évolution avec la mise en place d'une petite cuillère doseuse dans le paquet. Par contre, ce n'est jamais vraiment claire la quantité et la fréquence à laquelle l'administrer. Je l'utilise depuis des années et tous les cochons d'indes ont toujours adooooorés (cela aide énormément quand ils sont pas biens.. et cela permet d'être un bon indicateur pour suivre l'évolution de la maladie par exemple, s'ils refusent d'en manger ou réduise la quantité. Petite astuce/rappel, Après ouverture, à conserver au réfrigérateur. Perso, je fais bouillir un peu d'eau lorsque je le prépare, cela permet de vraiment de bien mélanger ce complément à l'eau ! La quantité d'eau est en fonction de la texture souhaitée. Si l'animal mange un peu par lui-même, une texture pâteuse est OK 👌 et à mettre dans une mini gamelle par exemple. Par contre, s'il ne veut pas seul, le "choc thermique" frais/chaud facilite énormément l'administration de ce complément avec les petites pipettes. Au début, je ne savais pas et j'avais l'impression qu'il y avait plus d'eau qui passer dans la pipette que de complément... 😅 +++ important +++ Familiariser et habituer ses animaux, au plus tôt, aux pipettes (en donnant ne serait-ce que de l'eau). Cela sera très important et fera la différence lors des périodes où ils seront malades (vous pourrez leur donner les pipettes en les laissant dans leurs cages) bon... Que certains médicaments 🙃 (si ça sent pas bon ou mauvais goût, ils se font rarement avoir deux fois ;))
