Head. Desk.
When we left the vet last Monday, they gave us cat-strength metacam and a syringe marked in 0.1ml intervals and told us to give Anagramma 0.3ml a day.
The 0.1ml syringe doesn't fit on the metacam bottle, so I've been drawing out 'some' into the metacam syringe (which is marked in kg of cat weight), then dribbling it into the 0.1ml syringe, spilling at least as much as made it into the syringe in the process.
Yesterday, Mike suggested that we bring both syringes into the house and experiment with water so that we can find out how many kg of cat equals 0.3ml, and just use the metacam syringe in future.
Today, I did that and it turns out that the cat dose of metacam is... 0.1ml per kg.
