Testimonials
“I have a ferret that is currently taking heart medication. The compounding pharmacist decided to flavor the medication with Tutti Frutti, and each morning my ferret races to his oral syringe for a treat.”

“My cat has a thyroid problem and the vet prescribed a Methimazole suspension. I was excited to hear that the medication would be in a liquid form and couldn’t wait to get it home to my cat. Well, quickly that changed. My cat would have nothing to do with it. She would walk up to the oral syringe and prance away with her nose in the air. I went back to the pharmacy and explained what had happened. The compounding pharmacist reviewed the formula and started from scratch, again, nose in the air. The pharmacist would not give up even though things were looking bleak. They tweaked the formulas again. I went home that night anticipating that the cat would hold the same reaction, instead she lapped it up. The next day she ran to her cat dish and lapped it up again. I was amazed. The pharmacist persisted and my cat now loves to take her medication. I don’t know what Neko’s did but thank god they did it.”
