Hubby isn't a dumb asp...he doesn't take Pepcid. I do...on occasion. The boxes are marked for my benefit... so I don't screw up. I am the one that always cuts up Roxy's pills. I cut up several weeks in advance, and then put them in a container marked "Roxy." He wanted to do me a favor. He probably picked up the first box he came to...wouldn't have thought to read (probably didn't eve notice) my scribbling on the box. Heck, he probably didn't even KNOW there were two strengths in the cupboard!
Some days I feed two meals and he feeds one..and visa versa. Neither of us ever feed all three meals. His "job" is to always give her Pepcid. If he feeds two meals... she gets her normal dose...1/4 twice a day.
If I feed two meals, I OFTEN don't give her any Pepcid. My "goal" was to give her the least amount possible...and her still not throw up. Going with just a 1/4 a day every day, wasn't successful... but going with 1/4 for two meals... "hit and miss" was.
The above, so-called system (with the 20mg pills), is why her rash seems to be going away some days... and not going away on other days!
I know one cat can have issues with something... and others not. But it just seemed SO unlikely that she would have issues with the Alnutrin and NONE of the others do. 6 cats... the odds just weren't there. I kept thinking what is different with Roxy. The raw and Pepcid? The Alnutrin and Pepcid? That's when it hit me... and I noticed the Pepcid, in her container, was MY Pepcid!
