Re: OT - Eating disorder in cats??

I would try periactin before pred. It does not suppress the immune system, to my knowledge (although short-term use of pred shouldn't either, in low doses). When periactin works, it often works wonders quickly. Michelle   In a message dated 12/6/2005 2:23:03 P.M.
