Why PAWER is dogs only, for now

By PAWER ·

People often ask whether PAWER can be given to their cat, rabbit or horse. The short answer is no. PAWER Daily is a daily liquid supplement for dogs, sold as complementary feed. It is not for cats or other animals, and we do not suggest giving it to them. Here is why, and what would have to happen before that changes.

Why only dogs

PAWER was built around dogs. The dose is set by a dog’s body weight: 1.7 ml per 10 kg per day. The syringe, the dose finder and the quiz all assume a dog. That is one product, for one species, done carefully.

A different species is not just a different size. Animals digest, absorb and clear compounds in different ways. A substance that suits one species may be unsuitable for another. Cats are well known for handling some compounds differently from dogs, and rabbits, horses and ferrets have their own digestive systems.

So it would be wrong to say “just use less”. Shrinking a dose is not the same as checking it is suitable.

What is in PAWER

PAWER Daily contains eight ingredients: NMN, PQQ, CoQ10 (PureSorb Q40), methylfolate, fisetin, isoquercetin, inulin and vitamin B12. It is a supplement, not a medicine. It does not treat, cure or prevent any disease.

We are also open about the evidence. These ingredients have mostly been studied in people and in lab animals. We do not claim a study of PAWER itself. Nobody can promise results, and we do not.

What would be needed for another species

Before we could make anything for cats or other animals, we would want at least the following.

  1. Species-specific evidence. What is known about each ingredient in that animal, not only in dogs or people.
  2. A safety review. Whether each compound is suitable at all for that species, and who should avoid it.
  3. Veterinary input. Vets who work with the species should review the formula and advise on who it should not be for.
  4. A new dose model. Weight alone may not be the right way to set a dose, and the dosing rules would need to be worked out from scratch.
  5. Correct labelling and rules. Feed rules and labelling differ by animal and by country.
  6. Honest testing of the product. Palatability, stability and ease of giving, in that species.

That is a lot of work. If we cannot do it properly, we will not do it.

Why not move faster?

Because the cost of a mistake falls on an animal. A product that is not suitable for a species is worse than no product. We would rather say “not yet” than release something we cannot stand behind.

What happens next

At the moment we are focused on dogs. Hungary ships first, and people in other countries can join a waitlist. We are also open to hearing which species people want us to look at. That is information, not a promise. No cat or other-animal product exists today, and we will not announce one until the work above has been done.

If you have a cat or another pet

Please do not give your cat, rabbit, ferret, horse or any other animal PAWER, or any product made for dogs. Ask your vet what, if anything, suits your animal. We have written general care guides for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and horses. They are educational and do not require buying anything.

If you have a dog

If you have a dog and are curious, a few reminders:

Joining the waitlist

The waitlist is for people outside Hungary who want to hear when PAWER ships to their country. It also helps us see what people are asking for. It is not a pre-order, and signing up commits you to nothing.

The honest summary

PAWER is for dogs because that is the animal we have built it for and thought about properly. Other animals might come later, but only if we can show it is suitable, with vets involved. Until then, the answer is dogs only.

What to do next

If you are thinking about adding a daily routine for your dog’s everyday health and energy, here is how to see what PAWER is and what it is not.
