Interesting, thank you so much for your information - which state are you located at ? Was it easy to find a vet to follow dr. Plechner's approach?

And they are getting a very miniscual dose 1/4ccs once a week. Even at their highest dose it was only 5ccs a day for 4 weeks, then we lowered it to 2ccs everyday for 4 weeks, then to 1 ccs daily for 4 weeks and then lowered it again to 1/2ccs daily for 4 weeks and then went to 1/2ccs every 3 days for 4 weeks, and now we're at 1/2ccs once a week (just started that this week) and if their symptoms stay good we'll probably stay there until I get them completely switched to homemade and then get them retested. So they have been on it for quite a while. I watch them very closely :) -- Belinda Happiness is being owned by cats ...
