I have decided to try Coconut Oil for Ruby's IBD.
I will start with 1/8 teaspoon and then 1/4 teaspoon per day depending on tolerance or outcome.
If anyone has any personal experience with Coconut Oil, just the facts please.
Thank you IMG_0075.jpg

You have to think of things in terms of what a cat would naturally eat. They would eat several small meat meals consisting of mice or bugs maybe a bird if they are lucky. Not coconut. Often I see people giving cats things they just aren't designed to eat. If your cat already has IBD you could cause her to have real problems, such as pancreatitis by adding something she cannot digest.
