We used it for one of our cats for arthritis it started at 9 drops decreasing daily until down to one drop,and I was told that it was originally meant for dogs so all of the posts say be careful are right.
always best to go by what your vet says and if you are unsure double check.
Green lipped muscle caused my other half problems with her kidneys needless to say we don't use it for our animals ....but I am sure some pets are perfectly OK with it.
