 Much better than the gel type October 17, 2008
I recommend this product for two reasons.
1. Less waste: My cat really doesn't like the gel version of this supplement. I mix his lysine into his wet cat food, and if it's the gel stuff half the time he won't eat it, wasting the meds. But he doesn't seem to mind or notice the powdered version in his food. Plus, there's less packaging to throw away. So less product and packaging waste. Nifty!
2. Easier to keep track of what's left: Using the gel pump is convenient and far cheaper than using the syringes (not to mention far less packaging), but I could never tell how much was left so I never knew when to re-order. Not a problem with this stuff.
The only quibble I have is that the little scoop in the package is just long enough that regularly it catches on the inside of the lid when I'm opening it, sending a fountain of powder all over the table or stove where I'm mixing up my cat's food. Not fun. But a few minutes with a sharp instrument fixes that. :-D None the less, I'd like to see it come out of the factory "surprise sprinkling" free.
Viralys rocks! September 19, 2008

I have been sprinkling 'human form' lysine on my cat's food for years. (He was an abandoned little guy and the vet feels he was most likely malnourished at an early age and has feline herpes virus as a result)
Since there is no cure, I was stuck with lysine as a preventative measure. I am certain it made his food taste chalky, as he would only eat a little at a time, and very reluctantly. My other cats wouldn't even go near it.
I am so happy to have found Viralys. You open up the jar and know right away any cat would love the taste by the smell alone! LOL My cat eats all of his food now and I can breathe easy that his outbreaks will be less frequent and shorter in duration.
Thank you!!!!! :)

I was recommended this product by a vet tech because one of my cats has an eye problem. It is not a "medication" all the cats get it and like the flavor-just sprinkle on food. Why not give your cat an extra boost for his/her eye health (expecially for persians and exotics!)
my cats loved it! June 11, 2008

Having 13 kitties when one of them gets an upper respiratory infection they all seem to follow. I put L-Lysine in the wet food of the cats that had an upper respiratory infection and they found the taste acceptable. In no time (about a week) of giving L-Lysine along with other vitamins/supplements the URI kitties could finally come out of quarantine! :)
My cat loves this stuff AND it helped to cure his ocular herpes. February 8, 2008

I do fully recommend this product. My cat had both eyes healing very slowly with the very expensive drops and ointment from the animal optometist. He had ocular herpes severely. The poor guy even had to have an eye operation.
I started giving him Lysine from a pill's contents, but he could detect it in his food. With this powder, I don't even have to mix it in the moist food completely, he justs chows down as usual.
His eyes are clear now and the meds are for usage once a week only, for maintenance. There was a very distinguished improvement in his healing after the Lysine supplementation. I don't know why the vet didn't educate me about using L-Lysine to help stop the progression of the herpes virus. It worked very well, I will buy the big bottle next time!!!
Stay tuned, I have a feeling that I can discontinue the meds completely and rely on the Lysine to keep the herpes outbreaks at bay. When they run out, I will try the Lysine only and see if I am right.
