I bought two big containers of organic extra virgin coconut oil when we finally went to Costco (my grandmother lives nearby, and I had to take her to a cataract surgery. Figured since were all the way out with her, better kill two birds with one stone and get to Costco!). They were (I think) 78oz, 23$ each. Huge win-win, since the organic coconut oil nearby is $18 for only 20oz!
Starting the dogs on it gradually. I’m also mixing some into my older cat’s canned food, since it obviously couldn’t do any harm, and I hope it helps some with her icky teeth.
I REALLY hoped Millie (my ultra picky cat who has some nutrient deficiency due to the pickiness…) would eat it and get some extra nutrition. She loves the refined stuff, but totally refused the organic, of course! -_-
So one more question on it: IS there any benefits in the refined coconut oil? (This is the kind w/o hydrogenated oils) If there’s at least a little nutrition left in there, then I’ll still give it to her. Possibly I can try to sneak the organic oil by adding about 5:1 refined to unrefined…
