You're worried because BUN is elevated? Aluminum hydroxide is said to present a danger of aluminum toxicity....
Hey, that's pretty insulting, to call you a liar to your face like that. I can see why you want a new vet. Good luck on the interviews!
What is a "civvie" cat?
I used this magnifying headset. I don't use the lights on the headset. I held the bottle and syringe in one hand, with a light source behind, so the...
I found this interesting, "Feeding exclusively wet foods may help with weight loss, as wet food consumption tends to reduce calorie consumption...
