Apothepet saved my cats life

petguy9 Jan 12, 2005 12:01 AM

My cat Jack had a really bad absess on his foot. The doc gave me medicine to give him and a salve to put on topically. The tablets were not really big and I didn't think it would be hard to get them into him. Well was I wrong. Jack was screaching and I felt like I was torturing him trying to get his mouth open and throw this tablet in the way the doc told me. Plus he was licking the salve off and scratching me.

I didn't know what to do.I called the vet back and told him this was impossible and that Jack didn't look to good and asked what to do. He immediately called my prescription into Apothepet a mail order pharmacy and by the next morning (No Charge) I had tablet medicine made into liquid in Bacon flavor. I started him on his first dose and he drank it right off of a paper plate like a treat.

He took all of the medicine and the absess cleared up and Jack is back to his former self.

Thank you, Apothepet for helping my cat

This sounds like a wonderful resource. More and more people are beginning to realize that compounding pharmacies can and often do make meds that are palatable to cats (or d*gs!)
