Editor's Summary
I'm not one to usually write reviews, but my experience with Caniina Canivita vitamins was a wild ride. We were on a trip to Germany, and I wanted to get some local vitamins for my cat. The first thing that threw me off was that the store had different expiration dates for the same product - January and February. I ended up getting the February batch, hoping we'd finish it before it expired. When I asked the vet for Caniina Canivita, they looked at me like I was crazy. They had the Canina line, but not this specific product. It was like vitamins weren't even a thing. I ended up using the product for a bit, but it didn't seem to make a huge difference in my cat's health. The packaging is pretty standard, but it gets the job done.

The packaging is a bit weird - the cap has a little nub that's supposed to help with dosing, but it's basically useless. You'll end up using a separate syringe to measure it out.
The ingredient list is pretty standard, but here's the thing - it's missing one crucial element: amino acids. My cat needs tauroine, and this product doesn't have it.
I'm not saying it's a total letdown, but it's definitely a hassle. You'll need to give your cat another supplement with amino acids, which can be stressful for both of you. And let's be real, too much vitamin A is a bad thing.
The stuff itself is a bit thick and yellowish. Make sure to store it in the fridge - it'll thicken up nicely. And don't even think about leaving it out at room temperature - it'll turn into a liquid and be a pain to administer.
I ended up using a syringe to measure it out, and my cat wasn't too thrilled about it. Sometimes the stuff would get all over their face, and they'd be grumpy for hours.
As for the actual effect, I didn't notice any significant changes. We were giving our cat 1-2 mL at a time, and it was a bit of a struggle to get them to take it. But hey, at least they didn't hate it too much.
