It isn't a guilt trip; it is a rule designated by the regulating body. If your cat had an issue which was exacerbated by a medication, and your vet prescribed it without looking at your cat, wouldn't you be a bit pissed? It is the vet's licence at risk as well.

Yes it should. And vets are required to do a physical exam if they haven't seen the pet in a certain amount of time. Where I am, if Revolution is seen online, it is counterfeit as they do not sell to online pharmacies. It may be different where you are.

I like this litter too but it so expensive.

$18 CDN for litter - I use Odour Buster. I feed Royal Canin Satiety canned - A case costs $26 CDN, but it lasts two months. I mix the Satiety dry with Hill's t/d- $44 for both. I get a discount so that helps. My cat isn't overweight but he would eat everything if I allowed him.

Do you have a photo of your litter box?

If you use bleach, consider the following: 1. It is horrible for the environment. It kills marine life. 2. You have to clean the box thoroughly before you disinfect with bleach because it loses any disinfecting properties once iui t comes into contact with organic matter. 3. It is bad for...

I understand how that would be frustrating and she should have told you after she finished surgery. However, I would have not refunded you either as it takes time to search for the uterine stumps and she would still have to close her up (subcutaneous and cutaneous suture). This also requires...

Did they do blood work? If his kidney values were normal it shouldn't be a problem and your cat wont be on it long term. If the blood work showed a decrease in kidney function, then the vet would not prescribe this medication.

Just be careful that she doesn't get any lacerations. My cat also bleeds a lot and almost died from a tiny cut on his paw. He was in the hospital for 10 days. His PCV (packed cell volume or volume of red blood cells) was down to 10%. I could test him for a coagulation disorder but there's...

I know this is an old thread but how do you know cats can be healthy on a vegan diet? Are you a board certified veterinary nutritionist? Your cat needs animal protein as that is where your cat derives energy and nutrients from. While they can digest carbs, it is more difficult for them and a...

I always get the dog ones and just make them smallet. They are too expensive! And I get a discount because I work at an animal hospital and get them through our supplier. I do wish my work would sell them. So much better than the overprocessed treats.

This reaction is rare. I've only seen it once in the last 9 years. Please don't discourage the use of a drug that may help other cats. It is actually an anti-depressant called Remeron which someone mentioned so a cat may become more excitable or vocal but this reaction is rare. Any cat can...

Rayne started in British Columbia-they developed homemade dermatological diets and delivered to patients' homes. They still make these diets but have evolved into shelf -stable diets (I. E. Wet and dry). Their philosophy is whole foods and higher protein. I like their philosophy because they...

I would get blood work done at least. Then have your other cat to the vet for his cold, and an fiv/felv test. Your older cat has a high risk of hepatic lipids is I. E.fatty liver of she doesn't start eating. Phone the vet and let him or her know she is still not eating and having vomiting and...
