    The only Metacam that was approved for cats a few years ago, is the injectable form for a one time use only. Any use of the drops has always been 'off label' use and comes with risks in cats.

    Yes, I've heard it's not good to use it except for a short period of time in cats. It seems that most pain meds just aren't good for cats.
