The vet does the same thing every time I take my cat in with rodent ulcers any good answers on what to do..?

Question

I got an answer saying I was not a vet, thats why I take her to one and they do the same thing everytime I take her in and its not helping her. Does someone other than the last person who replyed, know of a detox program ?

Answer 1

Most of the time rodent ulcers come and go.

You can try crushing a lysine pill and putting that over the cat's dry food (250mg is a cat dose, once a day). It helps the immune system, helps skin heal, and helps get rid of the herpes virus in cats (also helps US when we have cold sores). A generic bottle of 60 pills is $4 at the grocery store in the vitamin section, it'll be called Lysine or L-lysine, it's the same thing. I crush mine with the back of a spoon. Don't use the gel caps, the taste on those is awful and you can't get a cat to eat it. You have to crush the pills because they're too large to try to put down a cat's throat. They won't know it's on the food, there's no taste.

Answer 2

No detox programs that I can find, but a high quality diet with high levels of protein and good quality fats can put the patient at an advantage in keeping the ulcerative process from becoming clinically evident

Answer 3

Never heard of rodent ulcers but my response would be that if you don't like what's happening at the current vet to try a different one.

Answer 4

I went to 3 vets before I was happy with this one....change your vet.

Answer 5

I would most defiantly find a new vet, especially since they don't want to change a treatment that is not helping..... THE ONLY THING THEY ARE HELPING IS THEIR POCKETS!!!!!!!!
What good is a treatment that doesn't help??

Answer 6

then go to a vet. you are not a vet.

Answer 7

if you aren't satisfied with your vet change vets
