Guest Alichou Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I've started my grey and my cat on this chia seed formula, and I've noticed already a huge difference in their coats and in their energy levels. Has anyone else tried this? http://www.theperfectgrain.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest IrskasMom Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I just read all about Mila ( Chia Seed) . It sounds very Nutritous. Its for Humans as well . May I ask , where did you buy it.?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4My2Greys Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I noticed that's it is rather expensive. I'd be interested in it, but would like to know how long it would last. How much are you suppose to give? I saw that they sell single serve packets, but I can't imagine a cat would need the same amount as say a greyhound or human.

Guest Alichou Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 A cat under 10 lbs only needs 3/4 of a teaspoon a day which will last you a long time. I give my greyhound one scoop a day (2 tablespoons) in soft food. I buy the large bag (65$ from pet store, but you can buy a large bag in bulk cheaper online). One large bag lasts my greyhound about a month. My mum also takes it due to the high nutritious value. So far I've noticed both my cat and greyhound have much more beautiful coats and they seem to have a lot more energy. I buy mine at a pet store called pawsitively pooched, here in Calgary, Alberta. The most cost effective is to buy online. I would recommend buying 2 bags at a time as you see more of a savings that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHead Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Are the seeds fed whole? If so, I would be highly doubtful if any of it is actually absorbed. If your dog has ever eaten bird seed, you will know what I mean! They are not efficient at all in digesting seeds, they basically go right through. If it is ground up, I would imagine it would be digested easier. I add chia to my morning shakes, it also goes by the name "Salba" I think.

Guest Alichou Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 They are ground up. Very fine grainy powder. I'm also going to start taking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
