Hey Beckie, Prayers going out that Moe's scratching will get better soon. Do you think pill pockets would work for him? You can get them at pet stores.

Well Moeman has gotten REALLY sick again. He’s got huge bumps ALL around his neck, like he’s wearing a collar or something, but he doesn’t. I called the vet and explained to her that since I’ve already had him in there 3 times, I couldn’t afford to keep bringing him back and asked for Clavomox (spelling?). When our other cat McGhee was really sick like this that’s what she had and we would notice a difference in her in a matter of hours. The vet said it would upset his stomach and make him more sick. She said to try to give him a benydryl (again spelling?) and see how that goes for the weekend. We gave him 25mg last night, and he FINALLY went to sleep. I seriously don’t think this poor little thing has gotten a good night’s sleep in weeks. He’s CONSTANTLY scratching, or licking, it’s bad. So when we got up this morning he seemed to be a little perkier, but not much. Hopefully the benydryl will work and he’ll get his strength back. Only thing is we have the pills, and I feel HORRIBLE when we give them to him. Mitch has to hold him by his neck, then I have to pry his mouth open, etc….I’ve tried crushing it up and putting it food, but he knows it’s there and won’t touch it. Even wet food, which is like a treat for him! Any ideas on how I could crush up a pill and have him take it without even knowing it? Thanks guys. I swear, sometimes I wonder what I did before I found you all. Beckie ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need a vacation?
