Question Taurine question!

Hi i want to add taurine to my cats diets.

Would human grade taurine be too high strength?

My local pet shops dont sell it but my health food shop does

Hi,

If you are interested I have a new/unopened 100gram pot of Felini Taurine which I no longer need. I paid 10.99 for it - I'm selling it for 8.00 pounds.... you can private message me if you are interested.

You'd be surprised TB! Most commercial wet foods have no where near the RDA of Taurine. I supplement my kitties a couple of times a week...

Can't hurt, hey?

I would go down the raw route but my cats won't touch it!

With regards to human grade Taurine, I have no idea! Hobbs!?

The OP wants to make his/her own kibble and feed a raw diet.
