Michael Marylyn is the person who has used PetzLife successfully and recommended it. A syringe is a great idea. I've been putting it on my finger (while Dennis attempts to hold her mouth open) trying to rub it on her gums. It is a major 'event' We have used it for a few weeks and I think

Hi Michael, I am way behind on emails, but definitely wanted to touch base with you on the hyperT with Whitey (btw, I thought that was very funny you guys didn't know she was a male!!!) When you start Whitey out on the meds (either Tapazole or Methimazole -generic Tap), only start at 2.5 mg

I'm thinking Innova Evo canned is going to the the highest, without grains of course. Let us know if you find something with more. I am hoping he doesn't have FIP, but be careful of the corona virus titer. I have seen people say here that that is NOT an indication of FIP. You might look in

Hey Michael, Good to hear from you. Thanks for the tip on Solid Gold Tuna. I'll put that in my archives. Do you think he'll need a longer course of antibiotics given the severity of the infection? It bothers me that he's still a bit wobbly with only 3 days left on his meds. What do you
