    New Appetite Stimulant

    @babiesmom5 I am so, so sorry to hear about your sweet Calico kitty. I know the pain that is inevitably coming at some point when my Cooper leaves us. Thinking about you and your sweet baby. :hearthrob: Thank you for responding. I hope it will get him to eat some more. I'm so incredibly sad...

    New Appetite Stimulant

    @babiesmom5 Did Entyce continue to work for you? My 17 year old baby Cooper was diagnosed last week with bladder cancer and is now undergoing chemo (carboplatin). His appetite had already dropped off some before starting the chemo, but now isn't so good. Mirtazapine isn't cutting it. The...

    Please help! Two kittens with coccidia!

    I believe Roadrunner and Wedgewood also sell it, so you could have a vet send the rx there if they will prescribe it. I have heard of many others using it for kittens, just needs to be the right dosage.

    Please help! Two kittens with coccidia!

    Newmamaof3, please ask your vet about Ponazuril. It kills coccidia much, much faster and more effectively than Albon.

    Please help! Two kittens with coccidia!

    You definitely need Ponazuril. It knocked it right out in our cat that caught it from our adopted kitten. Our vet stocks the medicine, but if yours doesn't, maybe they could call it into a compounding pharmacy? In addition to Ponazuril, I would definitely start them on a high quality probiotic...

    Abandoned Kitten Losing Fur

    Thanks for saving that poor little baby! I agree with LDG that you should get to a vet as soon as you can. Those symptoms are definitely not normal. I don't know what could be causing the hair loss. The cloudiness of the eyes sounds like ulcers, which could likely be caused by feline herpes...

    Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) (GFSE) part 1

    Looking forward to post #3. :) I really want to do GSE for our kitties, but am hesitant about its possible interactions with meds they are already on. I know that GSE is different than actual grapefruits/grapefruit juice, but doesn't it come from the same place? I have always read that you...

    Grapeseed Extract for Cats

    c8rams, did you find any info for the correct dosing of GSE? I want to start one of our cats on it that has been battling a URI for 2 months now. We think it started as herpes, but then turned bacterial. He was diagnosed with mycoplasma through a bacterial culture. Eye drops, ointment...

    L-Glutamine for IBD kitty?

    Curious if anyone here has given l-glutamine to their IBD kitty. If you have, does it work? What kind do you buy and what is the dosage? Prednisolone and metronidazole just aren't helping much and I want to see if there are other more natural anti-inflammatories that may be helpful. Thanks!

    IBD flare-ups and weaning off of Prednisolone

    My 12 year old boy Cooper was diagnosed with IBD a little over a month ago via endoscopy. He may have had IBD for years for all we know, but it was recently triggered by a terrible GI virus that he got at the end of November from a kitten we adopted last fall (we have 5 cats plus the kitten, and...

    Prednisolone and appetite question for IBD kitty

    Hi all! We just started our kitty Cooper on prednisolone 2 days ago for his IBD (he gets 10mg a day). His appetite hasn't been terrible prior to the prednisolone, but it needs to get better so he can put some weight back on. Our vet says it typically takes 3-5 days for prednisolone to help...

    Please help! Two kittens with coccidia!

    Catwoman707, question for you. So glad to have found a recent post about Ponazuril in cats and someone who knows about it! Sorry for the long-winded post! We fostered a litter of kittens in the last couple of months. While I already had 5 adult cats, I had never heard of coccidia. I've just...
