Charlie gained weight! On my first post here Charlie was only 3 1/2 kilos and now he's 4kilos!
Charlie has roundworms. Actually he was scheduled for deworming the day he ran away.Originally Posted by Carolina
Awesome, yey!
By the way, I know that you got him to the vet, as he was neutered... Did you address this issue with the vet? When you first got here, you were concerned about him not eating, and how skinny he was...
Was all that addressed? Sorry if I missed it in another thread? Did he get dewormed?
Vaccines? Etc?
Did the vet diagnose him? meaning, did he get a fecal sample, etc? If so, sure... all you need is the medicine... You can pick it up from the vet's office and give it to Charlie.Originally Posted by MysteryCat

Is it okay to give a medication even without Charlie's presence? I called my vet but she was out, her assistant told me that it's possible.

Oh yes... Absolutely! See... I have a great relationship with my vet... When I found what I thought to be tapeworm on Hope, I too a poop sample to him in a ziplock bag, he tested and I went home with the meds... Didn't even take her in... Not for that. For more serious things, sure, but for deworming, poop sample in, meds out - of course my vets have their history, weight, etc.Originally Posted by MysteryCat
