Awww poor cat, mum its not really looking good tho is it

Oh dear Fran.

Metacam is a NON steroidal anti inflammatory drug. It has pain relief and anti-inflammatory properties. Steroids dont really provide any pain relief, maybe a switch back to Metacam or a combination of both will see her perk up, I hope so.

Steroids are anti-inflammatory drugs, metacam is a non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug similar to human Ibuprofen. She has never been prescribed Metacam, the vet went straight in and put her on steroids as they are stronger. I have Metacam in for another reason but because she is on steroids I will wait to speak to the vet before using Metacam..

She seems very depressed

I do hope things work out and Lucky feels better!

Take care Fran my thoughts are more with you than you will ever know. Take care of yourself and give her a rub under the chin for me will you, and maybe a slice of off the bone ham.
