CBD Oil for Cats 250mg

Description

Two hundred and fifty milligrams in a salmon oil base, with a dropper marked in small increments because a cat is a small animal. This CBD oil for cats is a lower strength than anything on the dog shelf and that is deliberate rather than a gap in the range. It is THC free, and the batch lab sheet is published rather than available on request.

What is in a bottle of cbd oil for cats

Milligrams per bottle, milligrams per millilitre and the flavour base. The second figure is the one that matters once the dropper is in your hand.

• CBD oil for cats: 250mg of cannabidiol per bottle
• Base: salmon oil, named rather than described as fish flavour
• Dropper: graduated in small increments for a cat sized animal
• Delta-9: THC free, non detect on the batch sheet
• Strength per millilitre: printed on the label and on this listing
• Price: $38 a bottle, with the price per milligram printed under it

Why a cbd oil for cats is deliberately dilute

Because the market divides pet products by animal weight and a cat sits at the bottom of that range. Bottles in the pet range run from small ones like this up to 1,500 mg for large dogs, and the extract is the same material at a different dilution. A dilute CBD oil for cats means the graduations on the pipette correspond to amounts small enough to be useful: the same graduation on a 1,500 mg dog bottle would deliver six times as much, which is the practical argument against decanting one into the other.

Salmon oil, and the flavour problem a cbd oil for cats has to solve

Cats refuse things, and a plain MCT oil is refused more often than not. Salmon oil is the base here because it is the one most readily accepted, and it is named rather than described as a fish flavour, which matters if an animal has a fish sensitivity. Flavour bases across this range are listed individually, salmon, chicken, peanut butter or unflavoured, because an animal that will not take one may take another. No xylitol appears in anything on the pet page.

Reading the dropper on a cbd oil for cats

Small increments are the whole point of the pipette on this bottle. At the strength printed on the label, a quarter dropper corresponds to an amount that makes sense for an animal of a few kilos, where the same fraction of a large dog bottle would be several times too much. Graduations vary between suppliers, so check the lines on your own bottle against the millilitre figure rather than assuming a full pipette is a full millilitre. Oil onto food is usually easier than oil into a cat.

Testing cbd oil for cats

Every lot is assayed by a laboratory with no ownership connection to this company for cannabinoid content, pesticides, heavy metals and microbials. It is the same panel the human range gets, not a reduced version of it, which is worth saying because the customer cannot read the label. Under potency lots are withdrawn from sale and their certificates stay on the public results page beside the passing ones, which is explained in why we publish the batch that failed. The non detect delta-9 line is on the same sheet.

What the feline literature actually contains

Less than the canine literature, and that is worth knowing before buying anything for a cat. Published pharmacokinetic work has given cannabidiol to cats orally at roughly 2 mg per kilogram of body weight and reported that they absorb it differently from dogs, with lower and more variable blood levels and more frequent head shaking and lip licking after dosing. Controlled outcome data in the species is very limited. Those are descriptions of published studies and the doses they used rather than claims about this bottle, and the papers are indexed at the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

Nothing here is a medicine and we make no claim about what it does for an animal. Speak to your veterinarian first, particularly if your cat already takes prescribed medication. Store the bottle upright, capped and out of the sun. The certificate for the current lot is linked here.
