The people on the CRF list commonly donate unused meds. I always feel like an ambulance chaser when I ask for Basalgel, but I think it could be a key to keeping Puss feeling well and have had no luck obtaining it on my own. Another member of the list said that Petpharm.org will be stocking it, but I'm still leery since it hasn't shown up on the list yet. Puss lays at my side as I work on this, on her catnip pad on top of her new pillow. She likes her little bed, and she definitely likes to be away from the kittens. When the kittens are out and playful, she tends to hide in one corner. But then she's always been a hider; she'd like nothing better than to spend her days curled up in the closet behind my clothes. She had been having more problems with hairballs. Recently I started her on Veterinarian's Best Cat-Lube, which contains Slippery Elm Bark, Marshmallow, Papaya Extract, and Natural Flavors. It's a tablet you can crush up and give in food twice a day, and praise be she actually likes the taste — plus it seems to be working. I've stopped giving her Pepcid. She is now getting fluids three times a week, and I'm giving them to her by myself. I never thought I'd write that sentence! |
