Cats that go out are very subject to piccking up a parasite or eating something they should not.

The medication can be compounded into a TRANSDERMAL form to be rubbed on the ears twice a day

 

 

Add one tablespoon of infant rice cereal to his canned or a jar of chicken baby food.

human baby food in meat flavours (check that there are no onions or garlic in the ingredients) and mix that with warm water and offer that, or syringe it in little bits into your cat's mouth. Beech Nut makes a line of baby food that has nothing but meat (beef, chicken, turkey or veal) in it. Here's a link: http://www.beechnut.com/Our%20Baby%20Food/Results.asp If you cannot find this, you could find another meat baby food - just read the label carefully to be sure there are no onions, onion powder, garlic, or garlic powder in it.

 

Give him a tsp a day of plain yogurt or a probiotic.

 

Please let me know how he is doing. I will always be here for you.

I hope he feels better very soon.

Sincerest best wishes,

Terri
