Low taurine doesn't show until the heart and eyes have paid for it. One tasteless scoop a day keeps your cat covered.
"I thought my cat’s food covered taurine, but [this taurine] proved me wrong. More energy and shinier coat in weeks."
"My cat used to vomit 2-3 times a week and after taking TheMeowCO for a month, she barely vomits now!"
"I was scared to give too much, but it’s water-soluble and safe. The scoop makes it foolproof."
Food has the minimum. But your cat uses taurine every time it digests a meal, and cooked food loses some along the way. Older cats, picky eaters and cats on homemade or raw food are the ones most likely to run low. One scoop tops your cat back up.
It has no taste and no smell. Start with a tiny pinch and work up to a full scoop over 10 days. Going slow is the easiest way to keep your cat from noticing.
One scoop (503 mg) a day, mixed into wet food. Start slow: ⅛ scoop for the first days, then a little more. The steps are further down this page.
You're covered by our 90-Day Happy Cat Guarantee. If your cat won't eat it, or you don't see a change you're happy with, email us within 90 days and we refund your order.

Cats can't make enough on their own. It has to come from food, every single day.
Too little taurine makes the heart muscle thin and weak. In 1987, vets found this was killing thousands of cats every year.
The back of the eye needs taurine to work. Without it, it slowly breaks down. That damage can't be undone.
Your cat sleeps more, plays less, and you think it's just age. Low taurine builds up slowly and quietly. By the time you notice, it has been low for months.

"Taurine is one of the few nutrients a cat truly can't do without. Food covers the minimum. For older cats, picky eaters and cats on homemade food, a little pure taurine is one of the simplest and safest things an owner can add. Any extra just leaves the body in the urine."
Many taurine products were mostly filler or hid the dose. So we made the simple version. One white powder. 503 mg in every scoop. A clear plan to start slow. And 90 days to make sure it's right for your cat.

Back then, lots of cats were getting sick and nobody knew why.
Then a team of vets at UC Davis found the answer. The cats were not getting enough taurine from their food.
Pet food makers added more right away. That is why taurine is on every cat food label today.
But the number on the label is a minimum. It is the least a cat needs, not what every cat gets. Age, picky eating and homemade food can all leave a cat running low — and nobody notices until it shows.

Your cat sleeps more, plays less and you've been told "it's just age." Taurine is one simple thing to make sure nothing is missing.
Homemade meals are made with love, but taurine is the one nutrient you can't guess on. One scoop takes the guessing away.
Cats who skip meals or only eat a few bites get less taurine. No taste, no smell — easy to hide in food your cat already eats.
Many taurine products are mostly filler. Ours is not.

A full scoop on day one is a common reason cats push a supplement away. Going slow gives your cat time to get used to it.
Is it safe? Extra taurine simply leaves the body in the urine. In long-term studies, cats got many times the normal amount for years without harm (Sturman & Messing, 1992).

Most cats refuse a new powder because it lands in the bowl at full strength on day one. We start with just ⅛ scoop mixed into wet food, and slowly work up to a full scoop over 10 days. It has no taste and no smell, so most cats never notice. And if your cat still won't eat it, you have 90 days to get your money back.
A full dose on day one can upset a sensitive tummy, which is why we never start there. The 10-day slow start (⅛ → ¼ → ½ → 1 scoop) gives your cat's stomach time to get used to it. If your cat is sick or on medicine, ask your vet first.
Taurine helps keep a cat's heart and eyes working normally and helps with digesting fat. Cats must get it from food, because they can only make a tiny bit themselves.
Many cats do fine on food alone. But food only has the minimum, and older cats, picky eaters and cats on homemade or raw food are more likely to run low. Not sure? Ask your vet to check your cat's taurine level.
Extra taurine leaves the body in the urine. In long-term studies, cats got many times the normal amount for years without harm. Still, start slow so the tummy can get used to it.
Only taurine. No fillers, no sugar, no flavors, no smell. 503 mg per scoop.
It depends on how many cats you have and how much you give. The number of scoops is on the label.
Every cat is different, and there's no set timeline. Taurine builds up slowly in the body, so give it a few weeks. You have 90 days to decide.
No. If you think your cat is sick, see your vet. Pure Taurine is a daily supplement, not a medicine.
Taurine is not a treatment for kidney disease. But cats with CKD are often on special diets, and heart problems are more common in them, so making sure your cat isn't missing taurine matters. Ask your vet how it fits the plan before you start.
Taurine helps the body make bile acids, which cats need to digest fat. Some owners notice calmer digestion after a few weeks. Vomiting has many causes, though, so if it happens often, see your vet.
Yes, cats on these diets can still run low. Muscle meat like chicken and turkey has less taurine than heart and liver, and taurine is lost when meat is frozen, thawed, stored or cooked. One scoop takes the guessing away.
Low taurine builds up slowly and quietly. By the time you notice tiredness or eye or heart changes, it has been low for a long time. A daily scoop is a small, simple way to make sure your cat is covered.
It's for cats 12 weeks and older. Ask your vet first if your cat is pregnant, nursing, sick or on medicine.

I honestly thought this was unnecessary because my cat’s premium food says ‘complete and balanced.’ But after learning that processing destroys taurine, I decided to try TheMeowCo. Within a month, my 8-year-old cat was more energetic and her coat looked shinier than it had in years. I realized the label wasn’t telling the full story. I’m glad I didn’t wait until there was a problem.
I hesitated for weeks because I was worried about giving my cat too much taurine. My vet explained it’s water-soluble and any excess just gets flushed out, so it’s completely safe. themeowco even includes the perfect little scoop so I don’t have to measure or guess. Now it’s part of my nightly routine, and I finally feel at peace knowing my cat is covered.
I was convinced taurine deficiency was something that only happened decades ago before pet food was regulated. Honestly, I thought supplementing was just marketing. But my vet explained that cooking and storage destroy taurine, even in ‘complete’ foods. That terrified me because my cat was already on a grain-free diet. I started using themwoco and the peace of mind alone has been worth it. Now I know for sure my cat isn’t slowly missing something essential.
I thought my cat’s food covered taurine, but tmco proved me wrong. More energy and shinier coat in weeks.
My cat used to vomit 2-3 times a week and after taking mewocompany for a month, she barely vomits now!
I was scared to give too much, but it’s water-soluble and safe. The scoop makes it foolproof.
