I'm sure nobody thinks anything one way or the other about the treatment for Mr. Meow. Everyone knows of the love you give to all the furkids who come into your care. I sure hope things get better for him soon.

OH GOOD! I hope he gets his appetite back soon!

Jen - what's the difference between Depo-Provera and Prednisone? Is there a reason to choose one over the other?

HUGS little lovey boy!

Depo-medro is an injectible. Prednisone is oral. They are the same medication = methylprednisolone. (from what I have been reading.)

The injection should last for about 3 weeks. I think the reason it is better is he gets the large dose at once instead of a pill per day for the 3 week period. But I am assuming. These are not he vets words.

My mom and dad's cat, Lucey, get the depo shots for her allergies. It works wonderfully for that.
