My rescue cat had Giardia as a kitten when i first had him. He has been well for two years but it has now come back again. He is big ,strong and feisty and I can no longer dose hime with the Flagyl that put him right as a kitten. I am looking for a t
Giardia can only be treated with either Metronidazole or Fenbendazole at the appropriate dose for your cats weight. I would consult your vet for the appropriate dosage for your cat since they have examined him before. Veterinary client patient relationship act says that a pet has to be examined by said vet who prescribed that pet medicaiton. I hope this helps. Best wishes and take care.

My cat is feral and 100% does not let a human touc her. I was fostering another cat and it gave giardia to my feral cat who now needs antibiotics. I tried sneaking them in her food and I got her to eat a little bit but not enough before she went on
Hi there and thank you for using Boop by Petco to address your concern. Unfortunately there are no alternative medications that can be given other than orally. You can try and see if having the medication compounded at a compounding pharmacy to a very small dose and with good flavoring that can be disguised well enough for Wendy to take. Otherwise, you will need to consider having her kept at a veterinary clinic as medical boarding and have the veterinary staff try and medicate her for you. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Hello, My cat was prescribed 30 x Metronidazole 50 mg/ml (compounded liquid) and also Gabapentin to use as needed. The Metronidazole is for stomach upset that has caused her to eliminate on my bed. She gets very upset by the meds - have to wrap her
Thanks for using Boop by Petco. This one is really hard and common among cat owners. A few tips: - If Gurl is food motivated, use treats or her food. example: give a treat, give the meds, give more treats or dinner. In time, she'll hopefully associate the medication with the treats/food. - Use the gabapentin to your advantage. Gabapentin has mild sedating and anti-anxiety effects (along with pain control) in cats. If you can get that down her, you may find that an hour or two later, the metronidazole goes dow easier. - Consider having the pharmacy add in some flavoring. -try mixing them into wet food, tuna juice, chicken broth, etc. get creative - try the pills - it may seem counter-intuitive but some cats you can pill easier than you can get liquids down. -Talk with your vet about other options. Depending on her underlying issue, maybe a diet change, steroid injection, or other medication or supplement can help. Best wishes to you and Gurl!

I have found a stray cat in a horrible condition of what it seems to be stomatitis. He is severely dehydrated and he is drooling blood. He refuses to eat or drink because of the pain so I managed to find a way to feed him with a syringe without hurti
Yes, your suspicion is right, Antibiotics are likely to be needed. Unfortunately without prescription it is going to be difficult to obtain any antibiotic and we are not allowed to make any prescription through this platform. You can try to see fi they have any antiseptic oral gel/solution designed for animals (like this one https://www.petdrugsonline.co.uk/pet-dent-antibacterial-mouth-gel).

I'm looking after 8 rescue cats in Bali and will be heading there from Australia on Tuesday. I'd really love some advice on which medicines to take to them as I find it quite hard to treat them in Bali. I need to treat an infected leg, a recent cat c
First of all you will need to get those medications from a vet as we are mainly talking about prescription medications. For ringworm Itraconazole is usually used, for infections i recommend taking Synolux which is the most widely used antibiotics in pets. i would also recommend taking worming tablets (Drontal) and flea treatment (advantage).
