In a previous thread I started about Feeby, a few of you recommended Cosequin for the arthritis in her upper spine. Even though the vet didn't seem to think it would be of any benefit, I thought I would try it anyway. But, I have a question about the product details noting that it helps support bladder health also.
For those of you who use this product, are any of your cats also on urinary/bladder foods (Hills Prescription C/D, Royal Canin SO)? I was just a little concerned that adding Cosequin on top of these foods might be - as the old saying goes - 'too much of a good thing'.
Also, PetSmart actually carries the Cosequin you folks recommended, but it also contains Boswellia Serrata Extract, which is supposed to be some sort of natural anti-inflammatory. But, even if it is labeled as 'natural', I was afraid long term use of it wouldn't be any better for liver/kidneys than long term use of NSAIDs. I haven't yet found anything on the Internet that suggests it would be problematic; but, wondered if any of you are using Cosequin with Boswellia.
Thanks!
