Feline Products

A selection of our “ Kitty” products

Available in 1.69 fl oz & 3.38 fl oz bottles

Product Formulation & Dosage Information Hilton Feline products are formulated using a combination of herbal tinctures mixed with sweet tasting vegetable glycerine. This produces and extremely palatable product that can either be dropped straight into the cats mouth; added to a small amount of food or broth; or dropped onto the cats paws where they will lick it off. We have had no problem getting cats to take the products using one or other of these methods. Recommendations for administration: Use 4 drops of the products per 2.2lbs (1 kg ) body weight twice daily. So an average size cat - 8 lb ( 4kg ) cat would need 16 drops of the product twice a day. 20 drops = 1 ml The glass dropper pipette holds 20 drops when full The small 1.69 fl oz bottle contains approx 1,000 drops which means that on the 16 drops twice daily dosage a 1.69 fl oz bottle will last an average size cat of around 8lbs 30 + days.
