The holistic vet said Pookie would definitely need antibiotics
and suggested Baytril. She nixed the colloidal silver, saying cats lack an enzyme to handle toxicity from herbs. I didn't think at the time to say, "It's not an herb, it's a metal." But at this point, I'm not going to argue.
I see Baytril isn't for dental use, but at this point, I'm thinking it might be the way to go. It's in a different class, so hopefully he'd be ok on it. Feel free to add your thoughts/comments/experiences with Baytril here. The reality is, I can't put off getting his mouth taken care of much longer, so I need to make a decision soon. I guess I just really want to know if anyone's had a bad experience with it (or their pets, I should say).
Thanks in advance!
