Joey is back from the Vet after his second bladder infection. First hours home he ate, drank and used the litter box - YAY. But has eaten little since that Wednesday night and as you all know, not eating can cause horrible, bad things to happen with cats. I suspected the sedative effect of the Gabapentin for pain combined with the sedative effect of the Aceproazine for urethra relaxation might be the reason. Vet agreed, said let's try cutting the pain med dose in half. Seems to have helped, ate a bit Friday and this morning. BUT - the med is a liquid in pre-measured doses in tubes I squirt into his mouth. It separates in the tube and shaking does not mix it up again. I was simply squirting half down the sink but could that be dangerous and be giving him too much of one ingredient that needs to be tempered with the part that got squirted away? Today is Sat. Vet is closed, can't ask them. I did pick up some appetite stimulant and some Cerenia to help with this on Friday, so maybe, maybe, I can go back to full pain med dose, will see, only gave the half this morning. Any ideas?
