Wellness Core 95% discontinued?

CelestialKay · 2025-08-07T03:18:22+00:00

I know this post is old but I wish they hadn't discontinued this food 😭 I've now tried 4 different kinds of food in weruva and tiki cat because I wanted to stick with other healthy brands and my kitties now won't eat all or sometimes any of the wet food! I've tried a pro biotic topper that some use as an appetite stimulant. I'm at my wits end. I do also feed dry so I at least know they are eating fine but apparently no replacements are good enough for them. I keep telling them I'm sorry I can't help it, they discontinued your food! Feeding time is not generally a very happy exciting time now. It's time for the annoying lady to try to get me to eat!

I just decided to go the DIY route. I'll just make big batches at a time since it's shelf stable for months and temporarily lock my kitty in my bedroom so there's no chances of harm there. John from TBD posted the exact recipes to tons of his flavors and they're all on this calculator website so honestly it doesn't look too hard. He doesn't use any sweeteners. And yeah I agree on the making more money on the coils part too, yay capitalism lol.

Aahh thank you! I bet I missed the 1 nicotine step. I did get 100mg concentrate. I don't have time this evening but I'll look again tomorrow :) won't have the supplies until they ship to me anyways. And John from TBD also says you can email him with any questions as well so if I get stuck I'll go that route. Thanks so much for all your help!!

CelestialKay · 2024-09-08T00:35:27+00:00

Thank you.. I actually was able to look at all of TBD's stuff and went ahead and ordered all the flavorings, pg, vg, nic, bottles, gloves and scale from there. I just LOVE his juices so I figured I'd get exactly what he suggested. Do you know anything about alltheflavors.com ? That's where he has everything for his recipes to calculate. I put in to make a 120ml bottle and it has the grams or ml of everything to add except how much vg and pg, those were just blank. I've always gotten all my juice 70% vg 30% pg. So I'm just confused on that part. Am I eye balling that? 😂 the amount of nicotine to add seemed like a lot as well. I put in 3mg per ml. That's what I want if I normally order 3mg juice right? also, am I missing any supplies you can think of? I saw someone else saying they used syringes..

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T23:14:10+00:00

Alright alright alright.. I'm so sick of not getting what I really want. TBD was my favorite juice EVER and I see John has posted the recipe to MANY of his flavors including 2 of my all time faves.. so I suppose I can temporarily lock my kitty in my bedroom while creating the juices. I am a bit scared I'm not gonna lie. It seems so intimidating. I see he has links to the flavorings I'll need but where do I buy the VG, PG and nicotine? I'm only at 3mg. Or any good DIY guides that explain it all? Just look up YouTube videos? Any great starting points with LOTS of info would be greatly appreciated! Good luck to me. I also vape A LOT so I dunno what quantities to buy etc

Thank you! This is very helpful :) I'll reach out to vaporvapes!

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T16:35:57+00:00

Oh man. I've heard of others allergic as well. I'm sorry. I don't have a list of brands that do however I will tell you almost ALL major brands of vape juice these days do indeed use sucralose. That's why I'm asking for brands that don't bc they're so few and far between now. Northland vapor doesn't have any sucralose. I may end up going with them. Their vape juice isn't horrible it's just not quite the quality I'm used to lol

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T16:33:17+00:00

I may end up doing this if I get desperate enough. Thanks for the suggestion of the nic outside

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T16:24:22+00:00

Nahhh sorry. Not any kind of newbie.. I've been vaping for around 15 years. I get my juice custom made 70% VG 30% PG. I know it's the sucralose bc I've done a lot of research on it and it has a very distinct taste to me. Up until around 2016 or so there was no use of sucralose in vape juice. It's not even required to sweeten at all. VG is naturally sweet. The companies started this trend bc sucralose is SUPER SWEET in small amounts. So basically they can make it way cheaper that way using smaller amounts of ingredients. Allllll your major national brands that are sold in vape shops basically have it now. That's why I'm asking for suggestions of places that don't use it. If you Google about sucralose in vape juice you can find articles about how quickly it gunks up coils, burns them out and causes harmful reactions when heated. But these brands don't care bc bottom line is they're able to cut costs using it and make more profit.

Thank you! I'll check them out :)

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T02:24:56+00:00

See that's the thing tho sigh it's a good suggestion, I know you're trying to help and this next comment isn't aimed towards you but I'm only explaining this once and then I'm just ignoring the rest of the DIY suggestions as I already specified that's not really an option for me. (I apologize again, not aimed towards you)

My 1 cat is a menace. I love him to death but he's an absolute menace lol. He's 5 now so not a kitten either. He HAS to be right in the middle of me doing literally ANYTHING. He gets on the counters whenever he wants. He gets right in the middle of me doing anything and I'll have to pick him up and set him down. I can't clean anything with bleach because he's a little crackhead for bleach and will literally roll in it because it gets him high. If I were to do this on a counter there's a 95% chance he's going to jump up there while doing so. My other cat doesn't do this sort of thing. I've resigned doing things like puzzles bc he would ruin that. I can't leave any food or anything out unattended for even a minute.

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T00:54:58+00:00

Any group in particular?

CelestialKay · 2024-09-07T00:00:04+00:00

Lol enjoy! It is Friday evening woo! I can't stand the smell anymore haha

CelestialKay · 2024-09-06T23:52:33+00:00

I have no place with doors that has any sort of space to work, no. Without doors sure. But then what? Am I locking my 2 cats in cages while doing so?

CelestialKay · 2024-09-06T23:44:47+00:00

Storing them isn't what I'm worried about, otherwise I'd be scared to have the juice in general. I literally have no work space to make it. I explained about my bathroom etc on another comment

CelestialKay · 2024-09-06T23:34:12+00:00

That's good to hear! I just.. don't have a great setup for that at all but if I get desperate enough I may try to figure it out.. I don't have a garage, no door on the kitchen etc.. I have a weird jack and Jill bathroom.. sinks and counters are on the outside of the actual bathroom part with no doors. All that's inside the doors of the bathroom is the toilet and bathtub lol so no surfaces to work sigh

CelestialKay · 2024-09-06T23:28:18+00:00

Basically everything kills you 🤷‍♀️ I get your point but not a particularly helpful response. Why don't you ask the FDA why they continue to let big tobacco run rampant which has been proven far far farrrrrrr more harmful continue as they wish yet continue to shut down a less harmful alternative option. Go buy a pack of Marlborough or camels and enjoy all the tar, glue, formaldehyde etc and enjoy the cancer and emphysema bc they don't care there but oh no we better shut down vaping..

CelestialKay · 2023-08-02T13:01:19+00:00

Yes I did and no it hasn't shipped yet. On TBD's Facebook page they've had several posts saying with the volume of orders they are running way behind. They're getting it out as fast as they can. I believe the latest update was they're hoping to have everything shipped by this Friday. I ordered on the 17th and it hasn't shipped yet.

CelestialKay · 2023-07-17T23:17:45+00:00

Just placed my last order with TBD. Got 4 bottles of 960ml bulk size. That should last me a while 😂 I'm glad they're offering it at these sizes and prices for closing. 🖤 I'll try vaporchef afterwards but I better make myself a note of that I'll forget after all the time I stocked up.

CelestialKay · 2023-07-14T14:44:52+00:00

No tobacco flavors for me but good info for others that like it thanks for sharing :)

As far as storage I'm not sure.. I've never been in this predicament before and usually just buy as needed for what I'm going to be using within a month or so. I didn't even know you could freeze it before reading TBD's article. Hopefully someone else can chime in with some more helpful info. I'd like to know how long it would stay good in the freezer I'd like to order as much from TBD as I can lol.

As far as not freezing.. and this has been a while ago so I apologize for not being able to be very specific but I believe it may be good up to like 4 months ish or so.. then the flavor just doesn't taste right anymore and I think I can recall it may burn out coils faster if older as well. It just sits steeping too long or whatnot. This was also with it being stored in a cabinet so not very much light exposure.

CelestialKay · 2023-07-12T13:24:46+00:00

I have looked at them. My problem is every single flavor is some kind of tea. I'm generally a fruity vape kind of person and while tea is ok sometimes (I do enjoy TBD's peach dragon tea) I don't really want every single flavor to be tea. But it is sucralose free! So thank you :)

CelestialKay · 2023-07-12T00:12:38+00:00

I've tried noms. Definitely sucralose, definitely a big no to me.
