    Okay I just received Zobalin in the mail will be starting Lucy on it tomorrow. 6/19 /20 how many should I start with. And how often should I give her 14 and 1/2 she weighs about 7 lb and had neuropathy really bad where she cannot walk a couple of steps if that. She drags herself along the floor if she wants to get somewhere .. and I can just give her the pill I don't have to crush it up right. She does okay if I give her oral pills
    thanks

    Lucy weighs about 7 lb. So do you think maybe a half a tablet twice a day

    If she is really struggling I personally would give a whole pill once a day at least and it she isn't improving add another 1/2 or whole --B vitamins just use what they can and pee out the rest. You know her best and as far as I know there isn't a real downside except your $ being peed out:oops:

    What kind of cat treats do you feed your sugarcat. I have multiple cats in the home and I feel so bad when I can't give her any

    It’s not about the weight at all. I’d actually start with 2 pills a day. Minnie was taking 7.5 mg which is even more than that. Most cats starts at 6 which is 2 pills

    If her neuropathy is bad is give her two a day to start. You just crush it with your fingers and sprinkle it on the food. I suppose you could try to just pill her. I've tasted it and don't notice a flavor. I hope she improves soon.

    I give pure bites chicken. I get the dog size bag. It's cheaper.

    I do that with the Minnows from VitalEssentials. The dog bags are bigger and cheaper!

    This is why I get the capsules from
    vitacost. In addition to be being cheaper with free shipping, I just open it up and mix it with the food. I’m 99.9% certain it’s tasteless as Minnie won’t eat the probiotics when I mix it in her food, but she eats the b12 just fine

    Id do one in the morning and one in the evening. Once you start seeing improvement you could do once a day. If it's too pricy you could do one in the morning and a half in the evening.

    Good to know that you can't overdose on it. I just put it in her throat and she swallows it

    It’s water soluble. The excess will get peed out
