This is very good quality and should be in every emergency kit for your furry family member It's packed full of so good nutrients and helps recover your furry friend The powder with a measuring spoon included in the pack is easy to mix with water and blends very well Like for my Cheeto 🧡 he needs syringe feeding for a while after yesterday's dental surgery he slowly tried already to eat his normal food oxbow critical care is to help him and he like it very much because normally he can be a fussy eater

excellent product for keeping guinea pig alive after dental work. good price from amazon.

Vital to keep in small animal first aid kit. Can be a lifesaver for small poorly animals. Good price. Must taste nice as some will even eat it from a bowl.

Used for years. Does what it says, easy to mix and reasonably easy to pull up into a syringe for feeding.

Essential product to have in a small animal first aid kit. I bought this for one of my guinea pigs to use as a supplement feed after some unexplained weight loss. It came with the measuring spoon, and the instructions are straightforward. The boar it was intended for isn’t too keen on the flavour. He will sometimes eat it if I mix it with a little banana or apple puree. My other boy loves this flavour though, so I think it’s down to their personal preference (and how fussy they are!) After having to buy 5 different recovery foods to figure out which one my boar would eat, I would strongly recommend trialing a few different types/flavours before a period of illness/an emergency so you know what they will willingly eat, and also so they are used to syringe feeding.

Very good for GI stasis. Delivered quickly, long BBE, good size bag and clear instructions. I would recommend it.

Oxbow critical care is my go to recovery mix for guinea pigs. High in fibre it has Timothy Hay as the main ingredient and has probiotics to maintain gut health. It is ideal for syringe feeding and unlike other products does not get compacted in the syringe. I have used it for multiple guinea pigs post-operation or when they are otherwise in poor health. It is very palatable and my healthy pigs are happy to eat it from the syringe if there is any left over.

This is necessary for any guinea pig first aid/medical emergency kit! I always have one on hand in case they stop eating due to illness & they’ve saved my guinea pigs lives before. They’re expensive for what they are, but (fingers crossed) you shouldn’t need it often so it can last a while & it’s WAY cheaper to have your own on hand than buying the exact same thing in smaller quantities through a vet when needed, so I recommend buying to save in the long run. Mine seem to like the smell, but I usually have to add quite a bit more water than recommended and use a syringe for thicker fluids, it’s very effective when used as advised & can be the difference between life & death for pigs!
