Gypsy is on a hypoallergenic diet (science diet d/d) and she also has feline herpes. The doctor put her on a Lysine (I think that's the correct spelling) gel but Gypsy won't eat it of her own free will. Short of shoving it down her throat....
The vet told me there is a powder form that I can get at the health food store, but she didn't mention the amount to sprinkle on her wet food in the morning (tried to mix the gel but Gypsy wouldn't touch the wet food at all or she'd eat around the gel). Anyone know the amount to sprinkle? The vet is closed tomorrow and I'd like to get her started asap on the 'medication' to help keep things in check. The antibiotic got her into a remission and is helping heal her nose so I'd like to keep things that way.
(Nose isn't herpes related... that's from her food allergy)
