"Chewy is always reliable, this salmon oil has become part of my cat's diet as recommended for digestion, but it also helps his fur. We both Purr!"

— Peggy

"Only one of my 3 cats would eat this in their food. It has a very strong fishy smell. I would not buy it again."

Bottom Line

It does what it claims but be prepared for potential leaky packaging and a strong smell that might not appeal to all pets or owners. Worth a try if your cat likes fish flavors.
