I actually bought the allergy pills for one of my fiv fosters who had a bad skin allergy following his vaccinations. his allergies were so bad he scratched until he bled, and was getting steroid injections. It enabled him to not need as many shots and thankfully his allergies subsided over time. Then when this new foster kitty came to my house w rhinitis, I thought any homeopathic agent that is anti-inflammatory may help her too, i.e. swollen nasal passages and all, so I decided to sprinkle it on her food as well. It contains vitamin c which also helps overall. They are liver flavored capsules, you can look them up on two docs pet wellness if u are interested . I'm on an iPad so it is hard to cut and paste lol. We are also giving the rhinitis kitty doxycycline, poor baby has not responded to clavamox or clindamycin .Thanks BarbB!
I will try the water chaser. I do give her some stinky treats afterward so she isn't too mad at me and that seems to work. The allergies are actually manifested in her skin rather than being respiratory. I did food elimination trials, different flea preventatives, changing bedding ect. She gets worse in the fall and spring, although it has extended a little farther this year. I am wondering if it is our apartment. We live in a ground level apartment in the Pacific Northwest. While I keep a mold under control with cleaning and a dehumidifier, being ground level can sometimes mean extra moisture in the air. Never had these issue in california! Apparently we have a mold addenendum to our lease and minor mold ins the tenant responsibility as long as it isn't the life threatening stuff that comes from major issues like leaks and such. It is an upscale apartment too, but everyone I talk to says you have to keep on top of that stuff especially in window frames and such. I just notice that her allergies are better at my parents, whos house is an a frame and above ground. Oh well, we will be moving next year as soon as the lease is up because they jack up rent every year to rediculous amounts and add on extra fees never fail.
