Cat Digestive Health Powder — Probiotic and Prebiotic Support for Your Cat's Gut Your cat's gut is home to trillions of microorganisms that directly govern digestion, immunity, and overall health. When the balance of that microbiome is disrupted — by antibiotics, dietary changes, stress, or aging — the signs appear quickly: loose stools, excessive gas, vomiting, dull coat, low energy. Tail & Tonic's Welsdom Cat Digestive Powder is a daily supplement powder formulated to restore and maintain that balance with a combination of targeted probiotics, a prebiotic, essential amino acid taurine, and a key antioxidant vitamin. Why Powder, Not Chews? Powder allows more precise dosing by weight, blends seamlessly into wet or dry food, and typically delivers probiotics more efficiently — there's no binding agent for the organisms to break through. For cats that resist chews or tablets, powder is often the easier long-term solution, because it goes into the bowl with the food your cat already eats rather than becoming something extra to negotiate over. Active Ingredients Per Serving (1/4 Teaspoon) Psyllium (Plantago ovata) — 0.5g — A soluble prebiotic fiber that ferments in the colon to feed beneficial bacteria. Psyllium also helps normalize stool consistency, whether your cat tends toward loose stools or constipation, by absorbing water and forming a gel that regulates intestinal transit speed. Enterococcus faecium NCIMB 10415 — 100 million CFU — A well-studied, heat-stable probiotic strain specifically validated for use in companion animals. This strain colonizes the gut and competitively excludes harmful bacteria like Clostridium and Salmonella. Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum — 1 billion CFU — A dominant strain of the healthy cat gut microbiome. Bifidobacterium longum produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that nourish intestinal wall cells, help maintain a normal inflammatory response in the intestine, and improve the mucosal barrier against pathogens. Higher CFU count targets the colon specifically. Taurine (L-Taurine) — 7.5mg — An amino acid essential for cats (unlike dogs or humans, cats cannot synthesize adequate taurine endogenously). Taurine plays a key role in bile acid conjugation, which is necessary for proper fat digestion. It also supports intestinal cell integrity and immune function within the gut lining. Vitamin E (d,dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate) — 112mg — A fat-soluble antioxidant that protects intestinal cell membranes from oxidative damage. Vitamin E also modulates immune responses in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), which accounts for approximately 70% of the cat's overall immune system. Recommended Dosage by Weight Cats up to 2.5 kg: 1/8 teaspoon daily Cats 2.5–5 kg: 1/4 teaspoon daily (one standard serving) Cats over 5 kg: 1/2 teaspoon daily Mix thoroughly into wet or dry food. Begin at the lower dose for the first 5–7 days to allow the gut microbiome to adjust before moving to the full recommended dose. Who This Is For Particularly beneficial for cats that experience: Recurring loose stools, soft feces, or inconsistent stool quality Excessive gas or rumbling after meals Vomiting or regurgitation not linked to hairballs Dull or flaky coat (often a sign of poor nutrient absorption) Recovery from antibiotic treatment, which depletes gut flora Dietary transitions to a new food Chronic stress (multi-cat households, moves, new pets) Frequently Asked Questions How long does one bag last? At the standard serving (1/4 teaspoon daily) for a 2.5–5kg cat, a 113g bag lasts approximately 30 days. Can I use this with the Immune Chews? Yes, these products are designed to complement each other and can be given together without concern. Is this safe for long-term daily use? Yes. The probiotic strains and prebiotic fiber are appropriate for ongoing daily supplementation. Consult your veterinarian for cats with diagnosed gastrointestinal conditions. How should I introduce it? Start at the lower dose for the first 5–7 days and mix it thoroughly into food rather than sprinkling it on top, which helps cats accept it without noticing a change in their meal.
