Absolute must have for rabbits
I’ve been running a rabbit rescue for a few years and this product has saved rabbit lives. Force feedings for rabbits with gastric stasis is always a pain, but this is the best product for it. Watering it down a little more than the instructions say is helpful for syringe feedings, following the instructions is fine if the rabbit can eat on its own. I would read and familiarize yourself with the ingredients on the back for educational purposes. For instance the use of papaya is for the proteolytic enzyme papain which helps break down proteins and fibers blocking the digestive tract. Similar to Bromelain in pineapple but with better efficacy further down the digestive tract which is where blockages normally occur. The rabbit in the photo is alive thanks to a combination of ringers and critical care. She got a hairball at the tail end of molting for the year even after brushing her coat.

The best product for emergencies
This is a miracle product, it saved my rabbit's life, I can not sing the praises of this product enough, I always recommend it to people who have small animals. I will always buy this and keep it in my emergency basket, one of my rabbits has a tendency to forget to drink water and as a result she becomes really lethargic. Every time it scares me, and every time I quickly whip this product out and use it on her. It's very simple to use, comes with straight forward instructions that are very easy to follow when your mind is all frantic and flustered. You just combine one of the packets with some water, and use a baby syringe to feed it to your rabbit. If your rabbit is very sick and is at the point that they will refuse food, you will have to force-feed this to them, and that is a little bit difficult, but It's something you have to do. It will save your rabbits' life. During the time I was feeding my sick rabbit, her cage mate came over and greedily licked the food off her chin. Rabbits clearly like the taste of this lol!

Good Stuff
My vet husband says this is great stuff with wonderful nutrition but the animals didn’t like the taste and would barely take any down. Maybe if you mix it with something tasty like apple juice.

Great for hammies when they’re sick/ struggling
I had 8 hammies at one point and a couple did get sick or had issue where they didn’t want to eat their seeds. We used this and they were able to get nutrients they needed. Kept it on hand in case of emergencies. Just make sure for your dwarves that you make it into more of a mushy paste so they get both hydration and nourishment. Thank you Good Vibes Vet and Dr. Moore for suggesting this for our ladies. Helped a lot.

I run a guinea pig shelter and this is by far the best product for feeding sick and inappetent pigs. It's WAY easier for syringe-feeding than the regular Critical Care, as it's easy to suck into a feeding syringe and doesn't clog up the tip. The pigs seem to like the flavor. I can't get it anywhere else for some reason, the local vet clinics aren't even able to get it by special order - I don't know if there's a shortage or something. Overall, this product has saved the lives of more guinea pigs and rabbits than most medications.
