    Making the right decision

    No I didn’t taper it. He got a dose at the vet then I get him another later that night. I gave him 2 on Tuesday and then stopped because he hated it and also his whole demeanor and everything seemed worse on it. Before he started it he was acting semi normal.

    Fluid in cat abdomen

    She said based on what she heard his heart sounds find so that’s why she positive he has cancer. She basically told me he needs to be euthanized but I’m trying to remain positive till he sees the vet.

    I gave my cat Metamucil

    Hello, a few years back my vet told me to give my cat 1/4 teaspoon of Metamucil whenever he is constipated. Today I picked up some from the store without realizing it was orange flavor not plain kind. After mixing it in the wet food I noticed the bottle said orange and looked at the back and it...
