Wondering if someone can let me know what the dose is for a 7kg kitty. I have 4mg tablets.

Trixie had a low bg yesterday and I had to feed quite a bit to keep her up and when I returned from work she had throw up everything she ate.

She ate poorly last night and this morning as well and just threw up again.

ETA - They are disintegrating tabs, not sure if that makes a difference.

9/18 Trixie - AMPS 79, +2, 61, +3 45, +3.5 56, +4 58, +5 65, +9 76, PMPS 103

Hi Kat, I’m really sorry Trixie isn’t feeling well :(, let me know if I can help. With Ondansetron you can give 0.5-1 mg per kg of cat’s weight up to 4 times a day to stay ahead of the nausea. For a little while, I gave Maverick both Ondansetron and Cerenia since they target different nausea receptors. I found Cerenia more helpful for vomiting. PM me if you need some, I have some Cerenia still. I gave Maverick 8mg (1/2 a pill) per day. You might want to double check with your vet if you’d like to add Cerenia to the mix, and vets also have the injectable that lasts 24 hours which I found helpful.

I’m so sorry Trixie isn’t feeling well, Kat. it sounds like the feeding yesterday caused an upset stomach.
I’m glad you have the meds at home. I hope they help her feel better quickly ❤️‍🩹

Thank you Christie 💕 Of course, I had a doctor’s appointment that I could not miss and had to leave her. 😔 I did pick up some Tuna in water though early this am and had given her a tiny amount and she ate it very enthusiastically so that was a positive. She has not thrown up again and is bright and alert now. I’ll definitely reach out if I need anything. 🤗

Thank you, Staci 💕 I really do feel like her tummy just needs to settle from the food yesterday. Hopefully, with time she’ll be back to her hungry self soon.
