Re: [Felvtalk] ot-sneaker fip?
My secret pilling method is meat baby food (no onions or garlic). I crush pills, dissolve the a cc of water and mix in a little baby food. With liquids I just mix it in a little baby food. Then I offer the baby food on a spoon or syringe feed it. Most kitties love gently warmed meat baby food and think they are getting a treat.

Re: [Felvtalk] ot-sneaker fip?
Hey, there is a new injectable antibiotic out called Convenia. The vet gives one injection and it lasts for 14 DAYS!! My little Miss Clara got it the last time, and she back to her old self and antics the very next day. She's hard to give meds to too. You should see if your vet can try that.Alice Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2008 21:25:28 -0800 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] ot-sneaker fip?

It's become my latest discovery to try for the unknown. I've used it mostly in cats/kittens with problem eyes. I've read that some abx are said to affect Herpes, because of the relationship between the two amino acids lysine and arginine. The zithro is more expensive, so that might be a deterrent. IT's liquid, as are amoxi and clinidamycin, so you have to be able to squirt it in the mouth.
