Default Some kind of attack

I think I was deeply mistaken about the 'expertise' here.


Read my above post. The treatment is 1/8th grain phenobarbitol twice a
day for idiopathic seizures for cats. Make sure you are trained how to
give a tiny pill to a cat. I found it not difficult but not that simple
either. I just place the pill on the back of her tongue. The cat did
not ever bite or scratch me either which I found surprising. But maybe
she knew I was helping her. Maybe you can put it in food. The pill is
extremely small so easy to deal with.

Before you cast aspersions, you should do some basic reading. From your
comments, you do not know anything about seizures and appear to be
going by what you see in the movies or television. There is expertise
in this newsgroup but you have to bring something to the plate or
table. Just to bring vague and very wrong suppositions will not be good
for your cat or your responses from the newsgroup. If you can up your
knowledge, the responses will increase too.

Most vets won't have the expertise to solve this problem. So fine. I
have given you the cure which is extraordinarily cheap. It won't cure
cure, but if it's a seizure it will stop the cat from having these
terrifying spells, as they used to be called in a different time and
place.

Again, 1/8th grain phenobarbitol, B.I.D., got it? That's the
prescription.

An old drug that you can buy a year's supply for a few dollars.

But you will need to tell the vet's that. If they look it up in their
textbooks, then can verify what I have posted here.
