NO ! NO ! NO !!!Originally Posted by gailuvscats
my VET RECOMMENDS VERY TINY PIECE OF A PEPTO BISMAL TABLET. BREAK IT INTO 6-8 PEICES. WORKS GREAT
Years back, the old tablets were made differently now they contain bismuth salicylates which is in the aspirin family and can KILL A CAT !!
Never give aspirin or anything in the salicylate family to a cat !
And as Hissy says 3 posts above your, please never suggest anyone give over the counter HUMAN medicine to a cat !! You never know when the formulations have changed or new evidence/studies show that these substances can be deadly... or how it will react with the specific health problems this cat is facing.
