    Clavamox liquid is quite bitter tasting to animals, particularly cats who sometimes do the whole drooling all over the floor thing when they get it. Didn't your vet flavor it for you? At work we have a flavoring concoction that we can make meds just about any flavor from tuna and chicken to grape and root beer flavored. If your vet doesn't have this flavoring stuff, ask your local human pharmacists, it's the same stuff they use to flavor kids medicine, they might, for a small fee, flavor Charlie's Clavamox. It won't make it taste perfect but it will help make it more tolerable for Charlie.

    Keep us posted.

    We chose chicken flavor this time. Last time was tuna and he did not like it! lol... the hard part is cornering him, since he likes to be loved and touched only on HIS terms. I think it's because before he was a shelter kitty, he was an "I'm a kitty who was abandoned in the desert" kitty.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016
