Poor Zelda! I don't mean to be ugly during your illness but you made me laugh so hard!!! The Cujo kitty remark just finished me off!
There is a nasty liquid medicine that they give at the shelter that also makes them foam and drool. Imagine a room full of slobbering mad kitties!!
I hope Zelda is feeling better soon. It's bad enough to have to take the medicine but then add insult to injury by putting her on a diet! POOR ZELDA! You sure a beautiful kitty, even with drool!!

If it makes Zelda feel any better, Flagyl has the same effect on many humans It is a REALLY bitter tasting drug so it is no surprise that she doesn't like it. Have you thought about maybe wrappying it in some sardines or a piece of tuna? I know that SASVermont has tried the "pill pockets" which might give you some help with the meds.


Zelda is probably eating all the extra food to try and get rid of the taste of the meds, so she may naturally lose the weight when she is done the medication.

Good luck with the pills!!

BTW, the picture was hilarious

Oh Zelda, I hope you feel better soon and then you won't have to take that yucky tasting medicine.

I wish that were the case, but she was over-eating even before she got the meds! Anyway, before I left for work this morning, I put 1/2 cup of food in her bowl (she'll get another 1/2 cup this afternoon), and in about 30 minutes her bowl was empty!

The Flagyl may still be contributing to her over eating, even if it isn't the only cause. That stuff is rough on the stomach (for both humans and animals).

My little Emily looks like a princess but she is a little piggy also. She will bully all the guys away from their wet food so she can eat it. If I don't watch she will eat everyone's food...

Poor Zelda!! I hate it when my babies do that drooling after a pill because it uspests me so bad.

She is as pretty as a speckled butterbean.... I would have had to name her Butterbean!!

Our little girl Jan did the same foamy thing when she was sick last winter. She would be so mad at us. I would finally try to wipe her face and she would be that much more perturbed. I finally gave up trying to get the meds into her and she got well anyway.

(this was when we got the pleasure of force-feeding her for four days )

Get well soon Zelda.

Here we have the "Oh no! I'm about to get another pill!" face.



If I didn't have my hands full trying to hold her still until she swallowed it, I'd get a picture of her, "Vengeance will be mine!" face.
