This post and the one after were posted in the wrong order so the name should read;
Transdermal meds you might not have known about & one more
then you watch the next post for some demented humor. Sorry all.
I try and sneak this in every six months or so. One is always near the top of my profile (profiles are meant to be looked at, it's not snooping). I'll change my profile soon to include whatever else there is including how I sneak meds into Daniel without losing a finger.
>Transdermal BUPE It has to come from a compounding pharmacy which in some places is a poorly regulated industry. The one closest to me looks bad and smells like a wet dog so choose wisely.
Transdermal BUPE has the consistency of toothpaste, comes in a syringe without a needle, it's expensive and lasts way longer than advertised. Noah needed all his teeth pulled and just HATED the oral no matter the flavor. His enlarged heart meant he would never have survived being put under so this literally added three years to his life. A little blob in the ear, rub it in and you're done. Obviously switch ears every day and it can leave behind a waxy buildup so keep that clean. It's not time release so feel free to break up the recommended dose into four or even six smaller doses. It never affected his numbers and he never got so stoned we had to keep him away from the stairs. Whatever your vet says there is no reason to keep an animal in constant pain.
>Transdermal Methimazole for thyroid problems. Same as above without the pain factor. I've never used this on a sugar cat so ask first.
>Daniel's PEG "PEG" is Polyethylene glycol. Daniel may or may not have mega colon. It's very painful for him walking around with a rock hard turd hanging halfway out his butt, you'd be pretty miserable too. He's getting a bit old for exploratory surgery and the actual surgery is thousands of dollars and "life altering". We can't sneak anything into his food so we do this. Mix some PEG with plain lactose free yogurt (all cats are lactose intolerant), put that on a dark dish so he can see it better and then up on the kitchen counter he goes where the other cats won't bother him. Start with small amounts. The expression "Go big or go home" doesn't apply here, it's more like "Go big and then rent a rug doctor". You'll know it when you see or most likely smell it first. Some vets don't like PEG because it can give a cat gas. Our last dog and our old cat Elmo used to fart, they both lived long lives. If you pull my finger I'll dig up the video
