Description

Tasty, artificial chicken-flavoured capsules your cat will love

Capsules can either be given whole or sprinkled onto food, to make supplementing your cat’s diet easy. Simply follow the on-pack guidance to find the dose and schedule that’s right for your pet.

 

Supports a healthy bladder lining

Normal, healthy bladders are lined with glycosaminoglycan (GAG), protecting it from direct exposure to urine, which can activate nerve fibres that make your cat feel uncomfortable. The N-acetyl D-glucosamine and hyaluronic acid in Protexin Veterinary Cystophan Capsules for Cats provide essential building blocks that help maintain this protective layer.

 

Helps your cat make the ‘happy hormone’

Your cat’s state of mind can be affected by many external factors, as well as their overall health. To help maintain normal stress levels, Protexin Veterinary Cystophan Capsules for Cats also contain L-tryptophan, which is used to make the ‘happy hormone’ serotonin.

Frequently Asked Questions

The capsule can be given whole, hidden in a small tasty treat if necessary. Or the capsule may be opened and the contents mixed in with food

Cystophan should never be mixed with hot food or mixed with food prior to cooking. We advise letting food cool to no more than ‘lukewarm’ prior to mixing in Cystophan.

We advise, if possible, giving the capsule whole or opened and mixed with food; although Cystophan could be mixed with a small amount of water to make a ‘paste’ if needed.
