    Which Brand Of L-lysine Works Best For Your Cat(s)?

    I was thinking the same about the gel, the only problem I have is the handling and stressing him out. Straight into food stops him fearing me coming at him with something in my hands.

    Which Brand Of L-lysine Works Best For Your Cat(s)?

    Does anyone know or have thoughts on Felisyl lysine powder? Im thinking of that one versus Viralys. Ive spotted sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate in Viralys and sugar. Not good for cats I dont think. Also is there a taste difference?
