My cat has been having more hairballs than usual and I think it might be because I changed his food which used to be a hairball control food. He's been having hairballs every week, not sure if that's normal for a short haired cat. Anyway, I wanted to
If he likes his current food then you can add in a hair ball medicine like catlax or laxatone. You can give this to him 2-3 times per week. If you don’t feel like you will be able to do that then I would go back to the food you were feeding before since it seemed to help. I like science diet, Royal canin, Iams, and eukanuba which all should have affordable hair all formula options. I hope this helps!

So my cat has been scratching her face to the point of bleeding and she has a cone on. It's been on about 2 weeks. After the 4th vet visit the vet gave me Amitriptyline to give my cat. The problem is she wont take it. I've tried tuna, 2 flavors of th
Ask your vet to have the Amitriptyline compounded into a liquid or a transdermal gel. The transdermal gel is absorbed directly into the skin so you don't have to give anything by mouth. It is probably going to be the easiest solution for you. ( https://www.1800petmeds.com/Amitriptyline+Compounded-prod90001.html?Ntt=Amitriptyline+Compounded )

I have a cat that's 10 years old and she is constantly constipated where I have to take her to get it evacuated. She was prescribed lactoluse twice a day, but is there anything I can give her that will make stools softer and easier for her to go so s
Poor kitty! This can be a challenging problem to manage in some cats. Giving lactulose as directed by your veterinarian is a good start, since this helps to keep the stool softer and easier to pass. In terms of diet, most of these kitties do best on a canned-only, highly digestible GI diet - ideally, a prescription diet like Hills i/d or Royal Canin LF would probably be best. If this isn't possible, you can use an over-the-counter canned diet instead. You can also try mixing a spoonful of plain canned pumpkin into her food twice daily, as this can be a good way of adding moisture and a small amount of fiber to the diet. There are other medications that can also be helpful for cats with this condition, including Miralax and cisapride, so it may be a good idea to talk with your vet about these options if she's still having problems that aren't well-managed with diet alone.

A feral cat that I feed has what appears to be an acute infection in his left eye and mouth area . His eye is crusting shut and he is having difficulty closing his mouth and is drooling a bit. No Vets here will provide antibiotics for a stray, and I
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! Unfortunately, there are no oral medications (prescription or non) that will help him. The eye probably needs topical medications so you will have to catch him to even try. I would recommend offering him canned cat food so he can eat without much discomfort. If he eats the canned food, maybe you can use it to lure him into the trap. Good luck!

There is a syrup called terbutalin, it's also a bronchodilatator but it may be easier to give to her because it is liquid. it's a human product so it can be purchased in a normal pharmacy with a prescription.
