    compunded mini melts methimazole question

    My cat had been on a liquid version of Methimazole (.5ml) for years from Covetrus. In December my vet said he couldn't order me any because Covetrus wasn't making it anymore so we decided to try 5mg of a compounded mini melt of Methimazole instead. I started giving my 16 year old cat these...

    senior gent with health issues questions

    She did. She asked the mg that I had and said it would be fine for him. I ended up buying some Hill’s and some Natural Balance. He seems to like the NB so I’ll keep trying that. I didn’t buy the kitten food because it has milk in it and my other cat gets sick with diary. Didn’t need two...

    senior gent with health issues questions

    @FeebysOwner they said they could do an ultrasound but I’m not going to put him through surgery if they do see an actual mass. Here’s his X-ray. @Kris107 definitely think it’s about making him comfortable at this point.

    I put large puppy pads under our box. Maybe tape some up the side of the wall?

    senior gent with health issues questions

    Our cat is probably around 16-18 years old. We've had him 10 years and he wasn't a young cat when he was found. He recently showed signs of declining health so we took him to the vet. They did an xray and thought they saw some fluid in his abdomen and a possible mass. His senior blood panel...

    Follow up for hyperthyroidism

    after my cat was diagnosed they did a blood test a month later and then told me to bring him in six months later for a recheck. Just to let you know he's doing really well on his meds. I get a liquid compounded version that supposedly tastes like chicken. Way easier than pills. I just put...

    solid carcinoma, grade II

    I feel your pain. Our elderly gent went to the vet yesterday when he was having weak back legs. They saw a mass in his abdomen and fluid in there. We're devastated, even though he had loss weight, I was hoping against hope that it was just his age. In reality I knew better but it still sucks...

    could being at the vet's office bring on pancreatitis?

    Just came back to say that my baby has made a full recovery. Something happened there whether it was stress or something else I’ll never know. I’m just glad he’s back to screaming at me for food and being his lovable self. Jynx making himself comfortable in my clean laundry

    could being at the vet's office bring on pancreatitis?

    Yes we are in the US. I searched my area and a vet practice I used 35 years ago with my first cat is listed. I never had a problem with them. I just started using a new vet when I adopted a kitten with allergies I’ve been with my current vet since 2006. I may need to go back to the first...

    could being at the vet's office bring on pancreatitis?

    Thank you so much @silent meowlook! I loved every word of your “rant.” They used both of his front legs trying to get blood. I know the last two times he had blood drawn they did it in the exam room with me and used a back leg. I could hear him crying out back and then it stopped. They...

    could being at the vet's office bring on pancreatitis?

    My 15yr old cat had to go for a well care visit last Monday 4/17. He's on thyroid medicine so he needed to be seen to refill his script. My cat is soooooo stressed out whenever he has to go there that I wait until the last possible moment to take him. He usually starts panting, sweating...
