Dry skin, scabs - cod liver oil


Well it seems to have helped my new cat cat anyway, after discovering she was scratching at scabs all over her back repeatedly I started to give her a couple of drops of cod liver oil everyday in her food and the condition seems to have cleared up after about 2 months, wasnt fleas, treated her for that, taking her to the vets is very stressful, very feisty little cat, but much calmer now, no scratching. Hope it may help someone.

My cats vet also recommended cod liver oil, said to empty a whole capsule into his food every other day, which I am doing to try and improve his 'dandruff' lol
