I paid $70 for my dog's pills through the vet's office only to get to work (at a pharmacy) and find out that I could've gotten it for at least half that!

But the pills really did help it to clear up a lot faster! Hope this helps!

EDIT: The pills taste like crap so I had to rotate between hiding them in peanut butter, bread, or vienna sausages. She's catch on to one trick so I'd have to switch it up a lil bit. She's too smart for her own good!
Well, we had our vet check up last night, and most everything is going well. Our cat no longer has coccidia, got his final FIV shot, but he still has a partially bald spot on his ear.

She said that it may not have glowed fluorescent under the wood's lamp because of the type of fungus it is. She didn't feel like it was out of control, but gave us a shampoo and wipes to treat the cat with and gave us strict orders to clean the :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: out of everything in the house.

Unfortunately, everything I have read about the prescription meds for cats is that they can have some really adverse reactions and a lot of the time they don't get rid of the fungus.

We will see, I'm pretty certain that it's just me and chris tossing it back and forth. He's going to the doctor tonight to get a prescription for some oral meds for us. Hopefully this will be the end of it!!
