How Do You Give Acai To An Elderly Cat?
The Acai berry (and its extracts) are promoted as health supplements which are full of antioxidants, amino acids, essential fatty acids and phytosterols. Some animal owners give their pets food and supplements containing Acai to prevent disease. Cat owners with elderly cats may use acai extracts, supplements or juice to boost the cat’s energy level or to strengthen the cat’s immune system. Acai is also a possible anti-inflammatory which may offer relief to cats with arthritis. The ASPCA cautions that an animal owner should administer acai to an animal only under the guidance of a veterinarian. Give the elderly cat prepared cat food with acai already added. Not all cats can digest all cat food so watch to make sure that the cat food agrees with the cat. Pour some acai extract or juice onto the elderly cat’s food. Discuss the proper dose with the veterinarian first. Purchase the extract or juice on-line or at a health food store. Give the elderly cat a capsule or pill containing acai. Pu
