Any advice on where to buy it from? What's the best one? Vet has recommended it for Darcy

Re: Coconut oil
Sorry Hayley I cannot help you to source it, but I could easily become addicted to the smell of it

Ella will know, I's sure she said she uses it as natural sunscreen.

Re: Coconut oil
I got mine from a local Asian store but make sure you get the edible type.

Re: Coconut oil
To be effective it needs to be virgin organic coconut oil, they aren't all the same!
I feed it everyday with their food, a good teaspoon full, if it makes their stool a bit loose start with smaller amounts and increase as they get used to it!
I also rub through their fur at times, it's also a natural suncream
I buy this one:
