Indications for use
Dietary supplements can be used to prevent and correct vitamin and mineral deficiencies in the body. They are prescribed as a course for daily use.
They are most often indicated in the following cases:
- using home-produced food (natural feed), since in this case it is almost impossible to calculate the daily requirement of vitamins for an animal;
- use of non-vitaminized economy class feeds;
- prevention of hairball accumulation in the intestines and their natural removal (relevant for long-haired breeds);
- improving the condition of the coat and skin, especially during shedding or in case of dermatological diseases;
- strengthening of bone tissue (relevant for young and elderly individuals, females during pregnancy and lactation);
- recovery of the body after an illness, surgery, severe stress (for example, after moving or a long trip);
- maintaining kidney function (special supplement Renaletten).
Kitty's pads are recommended for giving to cats as a reward during games or training.
Dietary supplements are not medicines and should not be used as the primary component of treatment. For effective and safe treatment of any condition, a course of treatment should be prescribed by a veterinarian.

Owner reviews
Karina L.:
"We bought Beaphar Top-10 vitamins for cats when our cat had a dislocated hind leg. The multivitamins were part of the treatment prescribed by the veterinarian. We took them for a month. The cat ate happily. The paw healed quickly. After the treatment, I don't use additional vitamins because I feed him super-premium food with high protein and vitamin supplements."
Masha:
"I love to pamper my kitten, so I often give her various treats. Our current favorite is the Kitty's Junior Gold Series. I like Beaphar for its price/quality ratio. I'm also impressed by the European manufacturing process: you can trust that the product is truly made from high-quality ingredients and is safe for your pet."
Petrunova N.A.:
"My cat really liked Beaphar Duo Active Pasta. She eats mostly natural food, so she gets extra vitamins. We tried several options and settled on this one. She eats the paste well, so there's no need to try anything else. Next time, I want to try this brand's tablets."
