Laxatone, too much of a good thing?
Hi Group,
You may remember my "Little Darkie", he had a cough which turned out to be from mold alergy. As part of the diagnosis path we tried laxatone for possible hair ball coughing, at first he did not like it but he quickly developed a "taste" for it. Now whenever I go into the kitchen cabinet he stands on his back feet and puts his hands into the cabinet to try and grab it, so I give him some, almost every day! Q: Is laxatone about 3/4 tsp once a day about 5 days a week on average unhealthy? He does not seem to have dirreaha and is big and seems quite healthy. I don't want to do anything that is bad for him. Thanks group, Karl. =^o^= |

Is this a very pirvate goup? Am I out of the clique?
Why are some questions ignored and other questions "done to death"? Karl. Hey 2 Fingers, Yes Laxatone is a laxative used maily for helping hairball to pass. |

Personally, I would not give it to my cat everyday. If I recall,
Laxatone is made from petrolatum, a by-product of the petrochemical industry. Seems to me you could find something healthier for your kitty. I know how hard it is when they're looking at you the way they do for something they want. Even something like a lick of butter off your finger might satisfy him instead. |

wrote: Is this a very pirvate goup? Am I out of the clique? Why are some questions ignored and other questions "done to death"? yes it is, you can get answers quick when you donate 9.95 to the BLFM fund. (that is Better Lunch for Me) I take all kinds of credit cards, and promisary notes. Hairball control, hey, at least she likes it. but! Im sure everyone here knows what it is (cept me i didn't) and they we're evidently not concerned about the amount you say you give. IOW if you said, I've been giving my cat, tylenol 2 times a day is this too much you would have gotten bombarded.. it's all in the question |

I give it to my cat most everyday because he has had some problems. My vet
said it would be okay. If you are concerned about it, why not cut back in the amount you give your cat, from 3/4 tsp to half tsp and then maybe just a dab? He's happy because he's still getting the laxatone and you don't have to worry as much. S. wrote in message ups.com...
