I miss her. She's only been gone for six months.
Well, most of them smell that way, but they won't touch ANY of them since the Hartz brand changed its formulation. These are the main petrolatum-based brands: Drs. Foster and Smith Hairball Remedy, Felaxin, Kat-A-Lax, Lax'aire, Laxatone.

And trust me...every single one, and every possible flavor, has come and gone through this house. I give the opened and unused ones to a local no-kill shelter. They know me well enough from other donations of food and stuff to take them that way (opened and unused). NOTHING I've tried works.

What about just melting the oil and putting it on the kibble?
Well, the challenge with Coconut oil is that it's melted at about 75F. Give or take. So, it would be grease now, generally, atop kibble. I could try melting it and putting in on there, although I admit, that sounds utterly disgusting to me, but then again, I'm not a cat. Worst case, I'll end up throwing out some of his food. {shrug}.

@Cins, thanks! We think so, of course. Not that we're BIASED or anything. Ha!
