This mineral-rich profile supports bone density, joint flexibility, and overall metabolic health. Unlike synthetic calcium supplements, the algae-derived form is gentle on the digestive system and promotes optimal absorption.

Why Calcium Matters for Your Dog or Cat

Calcium is crucial for maintaining strong bones, healthy teeth, and overall vitality in pets. It plays a key role in nerve function, muscle contraction, and blood clotting. While many commercial pet foods contain added calcium, homemade or raw diets may fall short. Supplementing with a high-quality, bio-available calcium source helps ensure your furry friend receives the minerals needed for a long, active life. Puppies, kittens, and senior pets can especially benefit from proper calcium intake to support growing bones and ageing joints.

This fine powder blends effortlessly into homemade food, kibble, or raw meals. For dogs and cats, the recommended dosage varies by size and dietary needs. As a general guide, small pets (under 20 lbs) may require about 1/4 teaspoon per day, medium pets (20-50 lbs) 1/2 teaspoon, and large pets (over 50 lbs) up to 1 teaspoon. Always consult your veterinarian before starting any supplement, particularly for pregnant or nursing animals, or those with health conditions.
