Slipper Elm & Egg Yolk Lecithin: help me with doses 🐱

[Mrcclms]

Hello everybody,

My cat, 13 months, Adam is:

- long hair, grooms a lot, hairballs are an issue
- he eats raw/lightly cooked meat
- he has BM every 3 days, small and firm stool

To help with regularity & fight hairballs, after quite some research, I bought SLIPPERY ELM & EGG YOLK LECITHIN.

He eats 4-5 Times a day.

What are good doses to start ?

- 1/3 of a cap of SLIPPERY ELM on each meal ?
- 1/2 of a cap of EGG YOLK only 3 days a week ?


Let me know your experience with these supplements

Thanks a lot

I have used slippery elm for diarrhea as well as constipation. I prefer to make a syrup out of the powder form ( you also can open capsules up). It stores in the fridge for 5-7 days and can be added to wet food. Here is an article.
