Micro-Case: “From Slow Mornings to Playful Pounces”
Milo, a 10-year-old mixed-breed cat, began the season with lower curiosity after play. The guardian introduced steady hydration, window-led “bird TV,” and one scoop of a balanced antioxidant blend (vitamin C, vitamin E, glutathione, CoQ10) from Hollywood Elixir™.
- Week 1–2: Mixes smoothly with breakfast; no flavor fuss.
- Week 3–4: Brighter eyes and smoother post-play recovery with daily enrichment.
- Week 5–8: A consistent rhythm—regular grooming, gentle stretches, and playful ambushes.
Takeaway: stack nutrition + hydration + gentle enrichment for steady, observable gains.
What Vitamin C Does for Cats—and Why It Matters
Vitamin C helps neutralize everyday free radicals and supports collagen formation for skin, gums, and connective tissue. It also assists normal immune cell activity and helps recycle antioxidants like vitamin E. For deeper science, explore Oxidative Stress in Cats and how vitamins fit within a layered approach in Vitamin-Based Antioxidants for Cats. Hollywood Elixir™ is designed to bring these moving parts together in one routine.
Is vitamin C the only antioxidant my cat needs? No. It works best alongside lipid-phase antioxidants (like vitamin E) and cellular cofactors. That’s why Hollywood Elixir™ includes complementary partners.

Comparator: Forms, Partners, and How Vitamin C Fits
- Ascorbic Acid vs Buffered C: Ascorbic acid is classic; buffered forms may be gentler for sensitive tummies. See our primer on vitamin c for cats for practical serving tips.
- Vitamin E: Fat-soluble support for lipid membranes; pairs naturally with C. Learn more in Vitamin E for Cats.
- Glutathione: Central to redox balance; see Glutathione for Cats.
- CoQ10: Supports mitochondrial processes; see CoQ10 for Cats.
- Polyphenols: Broaden the antioxidant network—visit Resveratrol for Cats and Blueberries for Cats.
All-in-one simplicity helps with consistency. Hollywood Elixir™ by La Petite Labs blends these supports so you can build one dependable habit.
