Cat - third eyelid

18 15:19:07

Question
Oreo 1 1/2 neutered male cat recently has 3rd eyelids showing.  Took to vet, said he looked healthy but then noticed he had fever.  Gave me Clavamox.  It's been 8 days & just finished antibiotic.  Eye is the same.  

2 months ago cat went from 8.2 to 7.2 lbs.  Spent $500 on blood work, feces, urine - everything came out okay.  Think weight loss was due to stress of new kitten.  The kitten replaced my other cat that died of FIP in December.  Oreo has since gained back the weight, now 8.6lbs

Everything seems great, both cats now get along & weight is okay it's just this eyelid problem now.  What is my next step?  I have been at the vets every month since November and spent thousands of dollars.  I can't afford to make another visit and get no results.

Answer
Rose, I can suggest a good supplement and vitamins.

First, can you put Oreo onto some Vitamin E ( 50 IU) one each day.
This may help the eye lid / swelling...  It can't hurt at all!


Next, let's get oreo and the baby cat onto some NuVET Plus for Felines -  It will cost you less than .50 cents per day for Oreo and only .25 cents per day for the baby kitten.  NuVET helps to build up the immune system,  cures or reduces skin and coat problems, helps allergies, reduces or prevents arthritis...
Here is the link - Not sold in stores - Many cat breeders and vet offices sell NuVET Plus for cats.
Buy from the Manufacturer and save over 45% of what the vet would charge.

You can mix this yum yum powder into canned cat food, tuna fish , or even a little cottage cheese.
99% of cats LOVE the taste.  ( Taste is guaranteed, if your baby won't eat the NuVET they will REFUND you)


Let me know if the Vitamin E and The NuVET Plus helps...!
