    Good luck - GILL - or smokey the elder? - mentioned in another thread that they had used the gel Prozac before and it worked well.

    How great that Cali is bouncing around again!

    Is it possible that after a long period of time that Diego can be weaned off the Prozac after having 'learned' to be calm? Or does your vet think this is lifelong?

    As long as the kitties are happy - that's the most important thing.

    I am hoping that once we can have a house and he's got loads of room to "roam" around that I can wean him off of it. I think this tiny apartment and the fire incident are what have driven him to this anxiety issue. If only someone would be a growup and settle the divorce so we could move on.

    Why they give the prozac gel as a last resort I will never know. It's so easy on us both. First I wash Diego's ears, Cali gets hers done too so no one feels special or left out. Then I glove up and put the prescribed amount of gel on my finger, rub finger on the inside of Diego's ear, Done. No wrestling, no struggling no stress.

    I hope Diego continues to do well on the gel. I hope Cali is doing better and hopefully the cone can come off soon.

    Take care,

    Both kitties are doing very well. Diego is back to his old self. Just a lovable, sweet boy. He even graced my lap on Sunday for the first time in a long while. He and Cali are playing now, not prey and attacker. It is so wonderful to have him back. I hope I'm not jinxing him by saying so.
