    Problems With Chewy.com Orders Recently?

    Doesn’t Fedex indicate when they’ve received a package? Thus one never updated while in transit. I think tracking not going past the printed label could mean a box is still sitting at the warehouse, either end at fault possibly..

    Extreme Persian Eye Maintaince

    Ask her for the gel ointment. You won’t lose any like you can with the drops and it’s much easier to apply. If it’s not available there or near you look online if you don’t care about waiting, but needs to be approved before they call. Same prescription shouldn’t be a problem. Chewy is the only...

    Problems With Chewy.com Orders Recently?

    I concur, Chewy spoiled me with super speedy delivery and just a couple of weeks ago was disappointed with them for the first time. My packages never went past arriving at my door 1 to 2 days from check out, the latter if I’m ordering late at night. The last order took a week and tracking never...

    Usually Chill Cat Ripping Out Tail Fur

    I’ve been going through something similar. If they gave you flea drops after an exam he must have tested positive for them. And if they did a skin scrape it would indicate any other parasites attacking the area such as mites—even that can be localized if caught early. Lastly if he has a skin...

    Extreme Persian Eye Maintaince

    Bausch and Lomb Advanced Eye Relief Eye Irrigating Solution. Contains boric acid and salts. Gentle lift, helps keep the fur from staining. Use every day switching cotton pads (or whatever you’re using) for each eye. I used this every day following a wipe of witch hazel for each eye, no longer...

    Extreme Persian Eye Maintaince

    @Furballsmom Never saw this! I was on earlier tonight too. @nunnc84 So sorry! There’s not much that I know about lifting the stains from the eye area. Grooming powder is mostly used to prevent stains and and help protect the skin and fur from contamination. There was a powder that was...

    Food For Cat With Skin Allergies?

    I had success with Go Sensitivity and Shine but it only has one flavor Duck Pate atm. Grain free, no fish, high in protein, carbs are under 10%, and if you don’t care it has some potato LOWEST in the top 5 ingredients it’s worth a try. It’s made for cats with allergies and considered very good...

    Getting Rid Of Hyperpigmentation After Ringworm

    Did you use Malaseb shampoo? Confirmed mine doesn’t have ringworm but it treats a host of bacterial, fungal, yeast infections. I might use Malaseb instead of Sebozole, but Bayer doesn’t make a conditioner for it. Sebozole has one if I were to change my mind, but since the meds are slightly...

    anyone give "brewer's yeast" supplements to their cats?

    From one source: Foods that Contain Yeast Extract | Livestrong.com “Because yeast extracts contain nitrogen and growth-stimulating compounds, they are used to cultivate microorganisms in foods, in particular dairy cultures. Cheese, including cottage cheese and yogurt, contains yeast extract...

    Has Terramycin Worked For Anyone?

    Since the thread was originally about Terramycin and then Neo Poly Dex, wanted to add that I’d requested the latter but my vet's practice doesn’t recommend it. I had a tube already which I kept clean and refrigerated after use (prescribed before I switched vets) and I always squeeze out a little...

    Has Terramycin Worked For Anyone?

    Thank you! On the antibiotics, nothing yet. He won’t medicate if he deems the problem to be someone else’s area of expertise. He especially won’t medicate cats in particular unless he’s 100 % sure of what’s going on, this much I know. He recommended I see a skin specialist—nothing more was...

    anyone give "brewer's yeast" supplements to their cats?

    Webmd is the only source I’ve read so far communicating this. My understanding is that Dried Brewer's Yeast is very much a yeast (fungus) and a different strain from Baker's Yeast, also dried when you receive it. Beer is made by activating it, and you can also make beer from another beer...

    Leukaemia/fiv Testing Question

    Mine tested negative when I got him but I often wonder if I should retest. Vet seems to think no need and doesn’t encourage it. I’m not so sure, but I’m ok with not testing for the time being.

    Has Terramycin Worked For Anyone?

    Update-beware tldr! He'd developed a bad reaction to both antibiotics—Neo Poly Dex and Terramycin. They were making him sick. Cipro is left to try again when necessary (we'd used it months ago) but his eyes look really good atm, perfectly bright round globes with no signs of cornea damage or...

    Confused About Tractor Supply Equine Pine Pellets As Litter

    Just wanted to say that I really love the system! So glad you finally got your answer. The only other insight I had into the Tractor Supply brand before I found my source was that they outsource theirs and stamps their TS brand on the bags and why it wasn’t hard for me to find it...

    What's It Like?

    Mine is a year old and fits that description perfectly—still with the personality of a 6 month old at times, with frequent bursts of energy. Not shy at all but still very sweet and that’s often the word I use to describe him. He's at my heels pretty much any time I turn around and I have to be...

    Elderly Long Hair Cat With Knots

    Thank you! :heartshape: He was a year old end of September and overdue for a new photo but I usually have to wait until someone else is around to get him to look up without moving too much—lately it’s just never a good time. He was about 7 months there.

    Has Terramycin Worked For Anyone?

    I think so too. Funny thing is I know this is how antibiotics work but since I see full recovery within hours I never thought I’d continuing for a full week twice a day.

    Has Terramycin Worked For Anyone?

    Thanks! Yes, I’ll be better with a fresh tube and I’ll place an order later tonight and they can call in tomorrow for the rx. :) After I posted I gave up waiting. He was on the Terramycin since yesterday and was hesitant to switch because of it. Not only did he not show improvement but I can...
