Kitter is a fast acting and highly absorbent wood pellet litter, made from 100% all natural wood with no additives of any kind.

Features of Kitter:

FAST ACTING

ODOUR CONTROL - PINE FRESH SCENT

Not only does Kitter smell great in the litter tray, but, as it absorbs liquids much more quickly, the naturally occurring anti-bacterial oils in the wood can act faster on odour, inhibiting the growth of bacteria, which cause that ammonia smell.

HIGHLY ABSORBENT

One kilogram of Kitter can absorb over 3 litres of odour causing liquid.

ECO FRIENDLY AND BIODEGRADABLE

All raw materials for Kitter are sourced from renewable plantation timber and are 100% bio-degradable.

PURE PRODUCT - NO CHEMICALS ADDED

Kitter is made from all natural wood with no additives of any kind.

GARDEN FRIENDLY

Kitter is great for composting. You can also spread it on the lawn or mix into garden beds. Not to be used in vegetable gardens. Always wash your hands after handling soiled litter and wear gloves.

LONG LASTING

Kitter works with any litter tray. Use Kitter with a two piece sieve tray to make each kilo last much longer. With a two piece sieve litter tray only the wet litter is removed. You only have to add a small amount of litter to replace the litter that has absorbed the liquid.

New to Your Pet?

Sometimes your pet is a bit hesitant to use a different litter, in a different tray, which is understandable. To allow a smooth, trouble free transition, sprinkle some of your old litter over the top of Kitter for a short period until your pet is used to the new litter.

We recommend using the Kitter Two Piece Sieve Tray (sold separately):

• Put a small amount of litter in the bottom layer under the sieve - use 2 to 3 handfuls.
• This litter absorbs any liquid that goes through the top layer.
• Put a layer of approximately 2cm of litter in the top of the sieve and the tray is ready to use.
• Regularly shake the tray.
• This allows litter that has absorbed the odour causing liquid to fall through the sieve into the base.
• Scoop out solids daily.
• The wet litter, in the base, can be replaced as required.

The regular maintenance process of the 2 piece sieve tray:

• Remove all the wet litter from the base.
• Add a couple of scoops of litter from the top of the sieve to the base.
• Then, add a couple of scoops of fresh litter to the top of the sieve.
• This allows the litter to be regularly 'turned over' with fresh litter always being added to the top.
• Every 2 - 3 weeks, or more frequently if required, clean the whole tray with bleach or a non-citrus based equivalent, and replace all the litter.

Regular maintenance of a standard One Piece Tray:

• Fill a clean empty litter tray with a layer of approximately 3cm of Kitter. 
• Scoop out solids daily and change the litter regularly.

Kohnke’s Own Energy Gold is a highly palatable, premium oil supplement with added Vitamin E.

Energy Gold is a premium ‘super cool’ oil and fatty acid supplement, designed to deliver daily energy for performance, stamina and coat shine.
Blended from cold-pressed, virgin Australian sourced oils, Energy Gold is a slow release, non-fizzy source of omega fatty acids, offering natural anti-inflammatory benefits and improved muscular function, as well as enhancing coat and skin health for a glossy shine.

Energy Gold is garlic flavoured to please reluctant eaters and contains no preservatives or sugar, making it suitable for grain or sugar-sensitive horses and ponies as an energy source or coat conditioner.

Dr John Kohnke’s special Energy Gold formulation provides a ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids that make it superior to other oils, such as linseed or flaxseed, which are only palatable in small amounts.
A specific balance of omega fatty acids can offer benefits for overall health including anti-inflammatory properties, and improvement in gastric, muscle and immune function. Energy Gold is also uniquely boosted with an optimal, fat-soluble source of vitamin E as an antioxidant for muscle and cellular function in exercising horses.

Energy Gold is specially designed to have flexible dosage rates with small amounts to encourage a show-winning shine and larger supplementation rates for cool energy.

Which Horses Benefit?
• For all horses as a fat source in the feed for daily energy - ‘cool’, slow release energy
• Provides energy without sugar or starch for horses which are sensitive to sugar or prone to laminitis
• As a coat conditioner supplement for equestrian and show horses.
• An omega fatty acid source for common or basic rations for working horses
• As a slow release energy source for horses needing fat-based energy for performance, strength and stamina over long periods of training, racing and competition.
• Especially for balanced energy profiles for equestrian and racing horses on high grain diets which are prone to tying up, excessive ‘fizz’ or lack of staying power from shortfalls in daily energy intake.
• To increase palatability of feeds and supplements provided to fussy eaters. Garlic flavouring is particularly beneficial to mask medications or unpalatable feeds and supplements.
• Mixer for pastes to ensure slow uptake for optimum absorption (ie Mag-E calming paste, Gastro-Coat paste).

Supplementation Guidelines:
Commence Energy Gold supplementation in a step-wise manner over 14 days, increasing the amount fed by 30 mL every three days. It may take up to 6-8 weeks for a horse’s digestive system and metabolic processes to adapt to a higher level of fat in the feed as an energy source during exercise.

AS A COAT CONDITIONER / MAINTENANCE SUPPLEMENT
For all horses, including grazing or resting horses and ponies to improve coat shine and condition. 
Add 12mL for each 100kg body weight daily to the feed. ie 60mL for a 500kg horse.

OMEGA FATTY ACID SOURCE FOR COMMON OR BASIC RATIONS
For general working horses to provide cool energy and improve coat condition plus the natural benefits of balanced Omega-3 to Omega-6 fatty acid ratio. 
Add 15 – 20mL for each 100kg body weight daily to the feed.  ie 75 – 100mL for a 500kg horse.

AS A SLOW RELEASE ENERGY SOURCE
For working horses needing energy for performance, strength and stamina over long periods of training, racing or competition.  For athletic or performance horses on high-grain diets. 
Add between 125mL and  250mL daily to the feed for horses 400 – 600kg body weight.

All of these ingredients have been identified as potential allergens for some pets.

Features:

• Turkey is an alternative to the common flavours and perfect for cats with allergies, turkey offers a natural, healthy protein with similar nutrient profiles as those of chicken.

Ipakitine supports renal function in the case of chronic renal insufficiency in dogs & cats. Administer only as recommended by your veterinarian.

Years of use in the field has confirmed the very high palatability of Ipakitine. This is very important in the case of CRF and especially for cats. Ipakitine’s nutritional purpose is for dietetic feeding to support the renal function in case of chronic renal insufficiency.

Ipakitine is a complete and optimised combination of chitosan and calcium carbonate. Both substances play their role in binding phosphates.

• Palatable - an alternative for cats / dogs that refuse to eat special diets. Older cats in particular can be very reluctant to change diets.
• Easy to use - mix Ipakitine with food or sprinkle onto food
• Cost effective - one 50g pot of Ipakitine lasts 25 days for a 5kg cat
• Flexible and compatible - Ipakitine can be used on its own or in combination with special diets and other kidney insufficiency management options

How does it work?
The ingredients in Ipakitine act as phosphate binding agents and lower the absorption of phosphates from the intestines. Thus, in respect of phosphate restriction they can mimic or enhance the effects of a phosphate restricted food.
There is also a reduction in the absorption of some uraemic toxins that can affect normal kidney function. Through this double action, Ipakitine supports normal kidney function.

Dosage:

1g for 5kg body weight, twice a day, combined with feed. Ensure drinking water should is available for the pet.

CEN Ulcer Protect is a unique natural formulation that may help reduce, heal and protect the stomach from the incidence of ulcers. This all-natural, non-medicated formulation may assist with:

• Healthy gut lining support
• Ulcers healing
• Elimination of ulcer formation in the stomach.

WHY USE CEN ULCER PROTECT?

• HYDROLYSED COLLAGEN PEPTIDES

Studies into the effectiveness of Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides for Ulcers in horses has shown that Hydrolyzed Collagen-fed horses had fewer and less severe ulcers throughout the trial. Significantly fewer ulcers were seen after 56 days of feeding. Hydrolyzed Collagen also lowered the severity of gastric ulcers in stall-confined horses undergoing stall confinement and feed stress (Hydrolysed Collagen And Ulcer Study).

• GASTRIC CELLULAR SUPPORT

Fermented Legume by Lactobacillus delbrueckii lactis Rosell 187 may help decrease squamous ulcer scores in horses (Fermented Legume Study). 

• ORGANIC TURMERIC

Turmeric in the research showed suppression of the formation of stomach ulcers

• SLIPPERY ELM BARK

Contains high amounts of mucilage that adheres to the gastrointestinal tract, soothing and coating injured and inflamed tissues, helping them to heal and reducing the likelihood of scarring, as well as drawing out toxins and irritants.

• GELATIN HYDROLYSATE

Gelatin’s short peptides – glyprolines – consist of amino acids of glycine and proline. They protect the stomach mucous tunic from injuries. Glyprolines are easily absorbed in the stomach and remain in the blood for a long time without breaking up. They act not only on the stomach cells but also on the central nervous system overcoming the blood-brain barrier, therefore they help prevent the ulcers caused by stress.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CEN ULCER PROTECT AND ULCER MEDICATION

Ulcer medications (e.g Ulcerguard) turn down/block acid production in the horse’s stomach (proton pump inhibitor).  CEN Ulcer Protect does not inhibit the natural acid pump action. It helps protect and heal the stomach wall with high-quality ingredients without side effects.
Stomach acid is vital for protein digestion and absorption of key vitamins and minerals such as calcium and magnesium. The acid in the stomach is also important as a barrier against micro-organisms and parasites in the environment entering further down the digestive system.
Ulcers in horses can occur n the Foregut and Hindgut. Long term use of ulcer medication can be risky. Evidence from human research indicates that long term use of Omeprazole impacts calcium absorption, which has been linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis where bones become weak and there is the risk of fracture. Short term use would be a lower risk.
This has caused some nutritionists and researchers in equine nutrition to question the long term use of Omeprazole in horses. Dr. Juliet Getty – internationally respected independent equine nutritionist, believes that concerns are reasonable because what happens in a horse’s stomach is not that different from human digestion.
“What happens in humans is that these medications not only reduce protein digestion, but they also inhibit the absorption of key minerals and vitamins, such as magnesium, calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12” said Getty.
