Review: Rejuv-A-Wafers

A few weeks ago we received a box of pet supplements to review: Rejuv-A-Wafers.

“Rejuv-A-Wafers for Dogs and Cats provide additional nutrition for your cherished pet, by rejuvenating your loving companion with nature’s most nutritious superfood. Rejuv-A-Wafers is a daily supplement packed with beneficial antioxidants, vitamin C and vitamin A, plus minerals, protein, beta-carotene, chlorophyll and fiber that will help your pet thrive.”

All three dogs were on it for 17 days, with Lassie getting two a day (after about a week) and with Petal and Ella each getting one a day (though Petal probably could’ve had two).

The Rejuv-A-Wafers are a small, circular shape and are very easy to crumble if you have a picky pet and want to crumble it over their food.

Petal and Ella both took the little wafer from me and ate it as if it was a treat (I was very surprised by this as they won’t usually eat supplements like they’re treats). Lassie, however, would not be fooled. He knew it was much too healthy to be considered a treat! But he gobbled it up no problem when I placed it in his food. I didn’t even have to break or crumble it.

Just like Sun Chlorella for humans, REJUV-A-WAFERS™ will help purify your pet’s body of dangerous toxins and chemicals, enhance your pet’s health with an abundance of beta-carotene, and help improve your pet’s appearance and overall health and well-being.”

My box of 60 wafers came with two resealable bags, each with 30 wafers.

I started the dogs on this supplement the morning after it arrived in the mail. They all did well that day, but that night the girls had a little bit of runny poo (eeewww, I know), so I skipped giving it to them on the second day and wasn’t worried about it; as with most new products, they needed time to adjust. I was surprised, though, that I only needed to skip that second day. After that, they all did very well on it!

Though they weren’t on it for very long, I did notice a few changes that I think came from these supplements. Ella, for example, has her cranky days where she snips and snaps at Lassie and Petal just because they looked at her or walked past her. She’s never harmed them, she just gets snippety sometimes (usually when she’s sore— she has a bad hip). But while she was on the Rejuv-A-Wafers, she didn’t have many (or any, now that I really think about it) of those moments.
Lassie and Petal’s coats look great! There were no negative changes at all, my dogs did wonderfully on it.

If you want to read more about the Rejuv-A-Wafers you can visit their website here.
However, I want to point out that while the website says to give pets up to 25 pounds 1 wafer and pets over 25 pounds 2 wafers, the box actually says to give pets up to 50 pounds 1 wafer and pets over 50 pounds 2 wafers. I would follow the box’s directions over the website’s.

Overall, I think it’s a great supplement!

Disclosure: I was sent a box of Rejuv-A-Wafers, free of charge, for this review. All opinions are my own based on my own personal experience while using this product.

We’re all fancy with a water fountain

On Tuesday we got a package in the mail!
Everyone was super excited, hoping it was dog treats! Or toys!
But nope. I didn’t buy them any treats or any toys.
Sorry guys.
Instead I (with the help of my lovely siblings) bought them a pet fountain.
What!?
A boring old water bowl!?
Whyyyyy?
Why?
I’ll tell you why.
This little stinker right here

does not drink nearly enough water.
Dog mouths are not meant to be sticky, Petal.
They’re suppose to be slimy.

And who wants to see that cute face all dehydrated?
Yeah. No one.

The cats are needing to drink more water as well and I’ve read, in numerous places, that animals are attracted to moving water.
I knew that had to be true because Petal would rather drink out of either a) a water bottle being poured out or b) the gutters or any moving water source regardless of whether or not it’s clean and mud free (eeeww).
Option B is not allowed.
And option A is just not practical for every day.
So a pet fountain sounded like the perfect solution!

Until I went to price them.
Holy cow.
$109 for a stainless steel Drinkwell 360?!
I don’t think so.
Yes it looks like a fantastic pet fountain, but I just don’t have that kind of money to spend on a water bowl right now.
They offered them in plastic for a considerably smaller price, but plastic just didn’t seem practical with 6 pets. And the finicky cats aren’t fans of plastic dishes.
And I wasn’t too fond of the idea of taking apart and cleaning a plastic one.
Of course I didn’t have to get the Drinkwell 360. There are plenty of other pet fountains to choose from. But the 360 seemed like the very best choice for 6 pets.
So I checked out Amazon.

How I love you, Amazon.
Amazon offers the Drinkwell 360 for $67 with Amazon Prime.
And we also happened to have an Amazon gift card.
And my siblings decided to go half on it since it would benefit their cats too.
So with all of that, I got a $109 pet fountain for $10
*happy dance*

This is the fountain and so far it’s a hit.
There are five interchangeable spouts, right now we have the one with 3 spouts on it.
It holds much more water than it looks like it would. About a gallon.
But the best part?
Petal drinks out of it.
And not just one slurp once a day. I’ve seen her drinking from it several times since it arrived Tuesday.
YAY!

Lassie and Ella have been drinking more as well and my brother’s cat is in love with it.
She’ll spend most of the day staring at it, playing in it, drinking from it and sleeping next to it.
The other two cats are still warming up to it, but they like it.

Overall, it’s been a really great buy so far.
And with Petal drinking more water, I have one less thing to worry about.
