This is interesting! Do you have any specific articles you’d recommend?

“Do you have any specific articles you’d recommend?”

No articles to recommend. Sorry. I did a bunch of reading when the cats fell sick. Then used trial and error, with recommendations from a vet, to treat the cats. For me, I’ve found that Clavamox seems to be a good antibiotic for cats. I also change the cat’s diet to feature more protein - in this case raw chicken liver. The added protein seems to give the cat’s immune system a boost to help fight off an infection.

Research both Clavamox and raw food for cats. Then if you use this treatment, make observations and increase or decrease the treatment, with consultation from a vet.

On some cats, I’ve used a 10 day on, 10 day off regimen with Clavamox. On other cats, they get Clavamox every day. In all cases, the cats seem to respond well with raw food while on Clavamox. And don’t feed the cats just liver because raw liver is missing essential vitamins and minerals for health. An ounce or two daily seems about right. Make certain the cat eats cat food, unless you want to feed the cat live mice - the perfect cat food.

Remember, I’m not a trained vet.
