Hello all, Wolfy was doing well on the Lasix, Diltiazem and Enalapril until I mucked with the dose. I was thinking that instead of giving him two doses a day,...
Anne, Welcome to you and Dominic. I am sorry to hear about Dominic's condition but glad that you found us. I am very concerned about Dominic from what you...
Can anyone recommend someone? I have located several through clinics. Does anyone know of a private practioner? Perhaps a general vet who specializes in this...
Angel, Which meds are you "mucking" with? I totally understand your reasoning but I would not continue to change doses especially if it is the heart meds. I am...
Angel, Here are a couple of sites that can help with the stethoscope stuff. One is from PetSage and the other from UCLA. The UCLA one is a human site, but the...
Hello Wolfy and Angel, Yes, your reasoning made sense to me, but I think Leah zoned in on why it probably didn't work. I would not have known that, and would...

I don't know what the upper limit is, but my cat was on 75mg per day. My vet said I could give him the 100mg pills if I couldn't find the lower dose. What ...
