Re: Lucy--B12 injections plus, OT - Rebound (for Wendy)

[Susan Loesch]

The company that makes it calls it a "high fiber recovery diet formulated to meet the nutritional need of a convalesing cat."   We use as a nutritional supplement for sick cats - or kittens with lots of diarrhea -- and have maintained really sick cats for a period of time on a combination of syringed Rebound and Nutrical when they wouldn't eat.  I've heard it explained as Pedialyte for cats - altho that isn't exactly right.
