timing it for when I know he's had something to eat. The pharmacist told me to
do this. I would definitely be happier using pills. Last summer we had to

You might try leaving a faucet running too. Or getting a drinking
fountain. Dixie gets bottled water..the tap water here has
too many odors to suit me and changes with the lake level. I am very

Did you doctor recommend a probiotic while giving him the anti-biotic?

Hi. We give interferon by mouth. It has no taste is not a problem to give.
Maybe what you are giving is different. There are 2 kinds, I think. One is for
humans (diluted) and one for cats (expensive). We give the human one.
The doxy tastes terrible. Can you chase it with a small amount of water
I have to tell you guys the funniest thing with BooBoo and his Doxycycline. I
gave him his first dose last night, through a syringe. He hated it. This
