My Ragdoll is in the earlier stages of kidney disease. The vet prescribed her Epakitin 2 times a day. This drug is in a powder form. I normally feed my 6 indoor cats dry (free feed) Nutro Complete Care and 1 can of wet food between them in the evening. Lita needs this drug for the rest of her life. Can I just mix the powder with water and give it to her through a syringe daily instead of putting it in her food?? Lita has been syringe fed alot over the last 6 weeks due to her illness. She is used to it and does not mind too much. She is healthy today pretty much with the proper medications
I asked my vet about just mixing the powdered Epakitin with water and giving it to her through a syringe for convenience and he said that it should be OK that way. He seemed slightly hesitant...
...that is why I am asking members here what your opinions are???? Thanks
