Yes, they are a breeze to use. Need vet prescription. I use BCP Veterinary
Pharmacy. I order and they ship that day or next day, overnight. The chews
are soft and small. (about the size of a pea). 1-800-481-1729.

My heart kitty gets lasix in triple fish flavor and enalaphril in caplets, I
break up the caplets and let the powder drain out and mix it up and give it
to her..didn't know you could get it in chew form.

Kelly, have you heard anything from your vet in regards to getting this poor 
girl on meds yet. I can't believe any vet would keep her waiting while he 
calculates for this long. I am at a loss for words. Each day that goes by 
there could be more damage occurring. Please keep us posted.

 Kelly,  I'm alsp very concerned
 about this cat. She should have
 gotten her meds right away, and I also believe a vet who
 has been
 practicing for that long may not be up on current
 treatments.  All
 physicians and vets have to continue to read, and learn
 about new
 treatments for as long as they are in practice.  Some
 do and others
 don't. They just stick with whatever they learned in vet
 school or
 med school.

Sorry, did not mean to be so short there.  The prescription is for 0.685
Amlodipine daily.  We got it in flavored chews.  Hoping she likes them since
she will be on them for life, if not next month we can get liquid or pill
