Thank you! I am extremely lucky in that my guy is honestly one of the easiest cats I have ever had to medicate. He has been taking pills twice a day with me since the day I brought him home 3 years ago. I don't even have to hold him! I just open his mouth, pop it in and then give him his after pill treat. I did send a message to our vet to see if they had an opinion one way or the other, but haven't heard back yet. . She did tell me that it isn't a problem to give those medications with Chlorambucil before. I guess I was wondering if maybe it's better to give it to him in the morning so I can keep an eye on him to see if he has any reactions? But I wasn't sure what other people do. I tried to google it, but didn't find anything.Chelsea only took chlorambucil and pred. You are giving more medications and so there is more of a question of timing, both for the use of the meds and for the comfort of you and your cat who may not be thrilled about having to do all of this. I see that chlorambucil is every other day in your case.
With Chelsea, we tried for the morning but it was not an exact science as she remained somewhat semi feral so it was always a little bit of an issue to put her in a purrito. It usually meant sneaking up on her with the towel if she seemed relaxed or sleepy.
The only thing I would want to know is whether or not one medication should not be given at the same time as another one and your vet could answer that very quickly and tell you how far to space them out if necessary.
