I talked to the vet on Saturday. Smokey was getting an injection of Winstrol every 2 weeks. We are now going to try 1 a month. The vet said we might consider stopping the Equistim at some point in the near future. His weight is now up to 7lbs.8oz. and he acts like a SuperCat now. I guess that is due to the Winstrol. I'm like you I don't know either but I don't want to change anything to drastically right now because I will be gone for about 4 days the middle of June. My husband will be taking care of all the furbabies. I sure don't want him to have to deal with a sick kitty while I am gone.
