Clindamycin Hydrochloride Drops

Our vet prescribed this for Mikey when he stopped eating for no apparent reason. He had gotten out the day before and he and the others were cat fighting and it's possible one of the clawed him pretty good or bit him. All of my cats stay indoors strictly but we had the windows open for fresh air and Smokey, our newest adult cat who used to be a tom wanted out and he pushed through the screen on the window. A very effective product and reasonably priced as well. It helped get them back on the right track and they're both eating again.

This is a very effective product however, my cats cannot stand the taste and they drool afterwards. I find that it has an alcohol smell and will ask the vet for another product next time instead of this. I prefer a medication that doesn't upset the cats so much.

Pros: very effective, low cost

Cons: very nasty taste, cats drool after it is administered

Clindamycin has so many uses -- dental infections, URI's, and other bacterial infections. We use it at the shelter and it is very effective. It is a great product to have on hand.

Pros: Great in shelters

Cons: Cats hate the taste
