Thanks so much for giving Petralyte a try! The good news is this is super common with cats, and there's almost always a way to win them over with a little patience. Here are the tricks that work best:
1. Go slow with a tiny pinch: Start with just 1/16 of a sachet (so small they barely notice) and gradually increase over 5-7 days.
2. Mix into something they already love: A lickable treat, a spoonful of wet food, tuna juice, or pet-safe bone broth.
3. Warm the food slightly: Gently warming their food (not the supplement) enhances the aroma and often makes it irresistible.
4. Try the unflavored option: It's nearly undetectable when mixed in.
5. Serve when they're hungry: Offering Petralyte-mixed food right before mealtime, when they're most motivated, tends to work well.
6. Stealth mode works: Your instinct to prep it out of sight is spot on, many cat parents do exactly this.
Hope this helps, and please don't hesistate to reach out to us directly! 🐾
