Whatever colouring, she is beautiful. Not to be labelled and 'put in a box'. She is unique.

Just to confirm what you all believe, l lysine does work! Rosie was due a herpes flare up 2 days ago, following her last steroid injection Didn't happen, no symptoms at all. Tried l lysine 500mg twice a day starting when she had her steroid injection 12 days ago, and obviously the bigger dose...

Thank you for your advice, will try that dose. Cat flu symptoms due to start in 7 days, be great if it works. My vet not sure if it works but doesn't mind me experimenting.

I give human tablets ground into a powder in her food, no taste.

Not sure if I need new thread, please let me know if so, but I wanted some advice on l lysine too. My 9 year old Rosie is trapped in a cycle of allergic dermatitis with daily atopica. Whenever she has a flare up she gets antibiotics, followed 2 weeks later by depomedrone injection, followed by a...

My cat has severe allergic dermatitis to all proteins in food .She has had a bad time for several months now , I have been racking my brain as to why she is not improving despite immunotherapy vaccines, atopica and steroids together with Hills z/ diet Prior to her current outbreak in November I...

Yes, tried that 3 times, still nothing, After I press submit they disappear never to be seen again My mobile broadband is slow, under 1 Mb, more usually about 0.4Mb, I think that may be the problem, but many thanks for your advice. I have also tried uploading from my laptop which uses chrome...

No, already done that didn't work, photos disappeared.Any more advice would be helpful. Can only think its bb speed or photo size. Can't think of anything else.

Trying to put photos on of Rosie in her babygro, her catsuit and now well again.Love the jacket, I have a full body one in black, have not been successful in posting photos yet. Put them on but lost them. New to this but will keep trying.

No difference really except she licked so much and the Purina dry swelled in her stomach with the fur that she got 2 partial obstructions, had 2 enemas, then the 3rd time she was so blocked up that she had to have a bowel washout . I changed her to Hills wet & dry so that her stomach didn't...

He looks cute, my onesies(we call them babygros in UK) have long sleeves with mittens and leggings with feet so covered from neck to toe, add bucket, cant get to any part of skin. How do you put photo on?

The allergen is the protein molecules in the food, every protein.That's why it has to be hydrolyzed so that the molecules are so small that the body doesn't recognise them as proteins ie fish, chicken,red meat,soya. That's why a hydrolyzed hypoallergenic food works-Purina HA or Hills z/d. I've...

I would keep the baby onesie on for as long as it takes for the lesion to start regrowing hair with no sign of redness at all and hopefully he will have forgotten all about it. As long as there is redness you need to let it dry up completely and wait till the scabs fall off.My girl was in a...

The food tests are not very accurate, don't know about the skin tests, we don't do them in uk. Best plan is food elimination but if your cat has more than one allergy you will be tearing your hair out trying to find it. Best idea is a hydrolyzed hypoallergenic diet until problems clear up then...

Just to let you know that my Rosie also has chronic herpes virus. I give her L-lysine 500 mg a day during a flare up and 250 mg a day maintenance and I swear by it. I was given the advice many years ago by a virologist who
