I did mention that I had been adding fish body oil to my cats' food at about 300mg per cat on alternate days.
The benefits of it apart from general good health is that it helps improve skin and coat. Slinky had been shedding a lot and after eating the fish body oil she has stopped shedding as much. Scooter's bald patch is also growing out at a pretty good rate.
Fish body oil or cod liver oil is by far one of the more popular choice of supplements used by pet owners.
Do remember than when considering adding any other supplements you should consider if there is a need and if in doubt consult your vet.
I found a good article on the use of herbal supplements in your pet's diet which you can read if you do choose to add herbal supplements to your cat's food.
