    Dosing with liquid buprenorphine (Vetergesic/Buprenex)

    Yes, that's the type. This is very valuable advice, thank you!. I don't know why I didn't think of practising with water. The vet "showed me what to do" and the cat responded very well, I've been disappointed that I haven't been able to get the same results. I was able to successfully "pill...

    Dosing with liquid buprenorphine (Vetergesic/Buprenex)

    I've been supplied with 1mL tuberculin syringes pre-filled with ~0.2mL. I'm supposed to deposit this liquid between the cat's gums and cheek, but this is proving very difficult. She trashes her head around so much that I have been getting most of the liquid down her throat, and I read this...

    Vet visit: Says she looks really good for 18. Says mild early stage kidney disease based on bloodwork, nothing else overly exciting. Didn't think anything in the bowel was too large to pass, and an enema resulted nothing out of the ordinary. Gave her some lactulose which resulted in a little...

    worried 18 y/o suddenly not eating "enough"

    Eighteen year old female DSH has.. opted? to change her diet. I'm a Canadian so I'll put measurements in both grams and ounces. For the last couple of days, she's only eating about 75g (2.5oz) of wet food a day, instead of 100-115g (~3.5-4oz) plus 2-3 oz of dry food a day. The dry food bowl...
