Can any of the meds be compounded into a cream that is rubbed into his ear? Or can some be injected?

Prayers for you and sweet Monroe. :love::love::love:

Thank you, everybody. :love: Only Lasix, the diuretic, comes as injectable, and only for in-hospital use. I would have to take Monroe every day. All the others come only in pill form. I hope I can find a food he really, really wants, and maybe he'll take his meds this way. Otherwise, I will look into compounding. I will ask his vet if an appetite stimulant is an option.
I told Monroe that his life depends on the meds, and he jumped in my lap and purred very loudly. As you can imagine I started crying again. Right now, he's watching me type, and he's talking to me.
We will figure this out.

prayers and positive thoughts on the way to you and Monroe.
Take care both of you.

I am too! :love:

I so hope you'll find a way to get Monroe to take the medicine he needs, so he can perk up a bit. Have you tried raw calf liver? Fister loved that, and it's smelly, so he might not notice the smell of medicine in it.

Sending lots of positive thoughts and big (((hugs))) :love:

I'm happy (and I mean really happy:)) to report that Monroe decided to take the medicines in pill pockets which I dust with Fortiflora, a probiotic that is really tasty.
Monroe is sending headbumpies and purrs (he has some really loud ones) to everybody at PT.
