<<I'm thinking of using CS in preparing my cat's food (which calls for some water) and I want to use some for myself (many health problems).>>
Eleanor, I also prepare my cats food (raw) and it never dawned on me to use the CS water as replacement for the water in the recipe(Feline Future). I would wonder the efficiancy of the CS after being frozen. I prepare their food, put it in baggies in freezer and take it out daily, thaw and feed. Anyone want to take a guess or have info about freezing CS? I do add CS to their drinking water on occasion and have used approx. 10 ppm as their only water also. I do this sporatically as I don't know that they need it on a daily basis. They don't go outdoors or aren't exposed to other animals. I do feel it keeps the bowl cleaner between cleanings. I have a water bowl that has a plastic container which stores about a qt of water(to which I add CS) and fills as it needs to. Its also elec. and the water comes out a spout into the bowl. The cats prefer to drink from this water, I will assume they like water that is oxygenated? They seem to be attracted to water from a spout into a bowl which used to be my bathroom sink until I purchased a waterfall of their own. :) Terri L. PS. I use CS myself. I keep some in a spray bottle on kitchen counter for those little emergencies. Last fall I did mega doses of CS (two months) for a particular situation and have taken it sporadically since. I always take a plastic bottle full on any vacation in case we get ill from a meal... (knock on wood, which has happened yet)
