Product description When it comes to whelping calcium is not about bones and teeth. The purpose of calcium during whelping is to give strength and intensity to the contraction. Calcium is stored in the bones; its release is regulated by the parathyroid gland. When the demand for calcium in the blood stream is high (such as as during whelping) the parathyroid gland pulls it from the bone in to the blood stream. If it becomes clear that normal labor is slowing down this is when some breeders will give a calcium supplement (check correct dosage instructions on product) and also give glucose as it can help to strengthen and intensify a bitches contractions. When you give calcium orally the bitch`s body will excrete what she does not need, so It is completely safe and does not have any negative side affect's. CALCIUM SUPPLEMENT should ONLY be given AFTER whelping/contractions have begun. IF UNSURE WHEN TO GIVE CALCIUM OR FIRST TIME WHELPING PLEASE CONTACT YOU VETS FOR PROFESSIONAL VETERINARY ADVICE BEFORE USING Directions Dosage & Instructions Give the number of tablets as shown below once daily, either crushed and mixed in food or whole by hand.

Smell of vanilla puts my cat off - she won't eat anything with them in it
The product arrived on time and packaged well and appropriately. But my cat refuses to eat anything with these calcium tablets in it, even if crushed and 'hidden'. I think the reason for this is that they smell very strongly of vanilla. I don't know if this is an added artificial smell but I'm not surprised she can detect it and doesn't want it. Disappointing.
