Can fish oil help my cat thrive? What's the proper dosage?
If she is on a high quality, balanced diet I would be cautious about over supplementing her as this can lead to dietary excesses (especially with cod liver oil type supplements as they can be high in certain vitamins also). Plant based supplements such as viacutan may also be an option but 3-5 days a week is likely sufficient

What fish oil supplements are best for my cat's dry skin and dandruff?
Hmmm. Not sure the train of thought your vet was on. I commonly recommend fish oils, any fish oil supplement will work. There is no specific amount, though the biggest side effect is greasy stools. If you notice that, then you decrease the dose. It can take several months for you to see a change after starting fish oils. You can find a pet product at a pet store, or just use one from the human supplements section of a pharmacy or other store.

My cat sheds a lot. What cod liver oil or supplements are safe?
Cod liver oil contains a large proportion of vitamins and minerals which can be difficult to adjust in small dosages. A blended omega fatty acid supplement formulated specifically for cats is preferred such as viacutan, omega aid or vitacat. Other options are specialist skin diets such as hills or royal canin which are additionally supplemented with natural antiinflammatory and coat conditioning ingredients

My cat's fur is dull and shedding. What vitamins or supplements help?
Hi and thank you for your question on PetCoach! Omega 3 & 6 Fatty Acids can help quite a bit with hair and skin health. B vitamins (B12, B5, B9) can also help with skin and coat health. Vitamin E can also help. I would acquire these supplements from your veterinarian. Here's a good supplement on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Theracoat-Skin-and-Coat-Supplement/dp/B005FYOCQ4 I hope this helps!

My senior cat has kidney disease. What food and Omegas are best?
In general, foods low in sodium and phosphorus are good choices for patients with kidney disease. The best fatty acid supplement you can provide in my opinion to your kitty is this: https://www.chewy.com/nutramax-welactin-feline-omega-3-cat/dp/101463?utm_source=google-product&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=f&utm_content=Nutramax&utm_term=&gclid=Cj0KEQjwv_fKBRCG8a3ao-OQuZ8BEiQAvpHp6BoPUzdXnGydlce04vEekIBtBBc1AgMnoFoND3oiRtgaAupp8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds It is easy to dose and generally considered palatable by most cats. I think it is a perfectly fine idea to use them in your kitty.
