    Cats on Prozac?

    Dosage depends on weight.  How much does Pinky weigh?I see you have him listed as "kitten" so perhaps that would be a lower dosage.  I have no idea why it's a tablet, as mine is a bluish-greenish capsule with powder inside so at this point I have no idea if we are even talking about the same...

    Cats on Prozac?

    I honestly think you could do better at Walmart, call and ask for the price on 10 mg. fluoxetine, which is the generic for Prozac and works just as well, it is what I use.  My vet is very reasonable and I get mine from him, but if that is not an option then definitely check Walmart before you...

    Cats on Prozac?

    Oh, something else:  As long as the spraying continues, you need to get a jug of Simple Solution.  I got mine on Amazon, just the regular strength works fine for me.  Put it in a spray bottle and douse anywhere the cats spray.  You can use it on pretty much anything, it gets rid of the urine...

    Cats on Prozac?

    Cats with kidney disease should not be on Prozac!!  Seriously, kidney or liver disease are just about the only reasons you CAN'T use it, so please check with your vet and find out why he thought it was okay to prescribe it.

    Cats on Prozac?

    My cat (actually my son's cat, he got booted out by the daughter-in-law for spraying!) has always been very high-strung.  He was okay at my house for awhile, then I found a newborn kitten and brought it in and saved it.  Well, that put him (Bumpy) right over the edge!  I tried everything but the...
