We adopted two cats two weeks before x-mas. We knew on was sick, Chip. Since then we have brought him to our vet about six times. The one before the last they increased his anti-biodics to two human pills - half pills of both medicines for 7 days then every other day util gone. My H said that when they prescribed these they said if he did not get better they would do blood work. After the dosage was complete I took him in and they prescibed those two pills and one other much stronger pill. I asked them about blood work and they got defensive and said they were doing the best they could and this was the best course of action.
While I was there I asked the doctor (internal specialist and nurse) about giving Chip cat lysine. They had both never heard of that! This made me a little unsure of the care we are getting. The nurse said they would look into it so the next day I called and spoke to him and he said he did not think I wanted them to look into and I asked him to please look into it. That was almost two weeks ago and they have not called me back.
Honestly I don't think I even want to bring my cat back into the vet after his dosage this time around because he seems to get increasingly worse after the visit, I think from the stess.
Since we adopted him we have spent about $600 on vet bills with no progress to show for it.
What do you all think we should do?
