What I have is Vet Viralys which I got from my vet. It says use 1/2 scoop
(one scoop = 250 mg of l-lysine) twice a day for kittens under 6 months and

I use the l-lysine from a health food store, the powder inside a capsule,
250-500 mg once a day. It's an amino acid and is water soluble so any excess
is excreted in the urine. Hard to OD on l-lysine.

Some in our group have had great luck using Elavil for cats that pee

THey can treat toxo. It is treated with clindamycin (sp?). They
haven't tested for it. It has to be sent out to a lab and it takes a
while to get the results back apparently. I okayed the treatment
since it wouldn't hurt anything and might help.

First of all, call the police and animal control and report each and
every confrontation you have had with these people, time and date and
what your neighbor has said. We have creep neighbors who trap cats
and release them miles away and apparently also kill them in our
lovely university
All these ideas are so great!

It's British but still very useful as it discusses the disease and
feeding and treatments and also includes references to American labs.

I am surprised she is not on Regaln already...( that is the drug you

increasins peristalsis ,,so they do not vomit, ask for injectable!!

Can Cassandra inject the metaclopramide into the port close to the
