Vet Q & AShould my cat take probiotics for digestive issues or gut health?
Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
I don't think cats or dogs need probiotics if they are healthy. I do like them for gastro-intestinal issues. I like Purina Fortiflora, you can find it online. Cats really like it. If you want to use probiotics in a healthy cat it won't hurt them.
I hope this helps!
