1022.1have you tried Ovaban?VAXWRK::SKALTSISDebThu Jan 07 1988 19:264
    Before you send Rocky to a new home, have you considered putting
    his big sister on Ovaban? It is like feeding the cat a "nice pill".

    I used Ovaban for a while when one of my kittys started to be a
    real stinker.  He would pick fights with the other kittys.  This
    went on for several weeks, and it was quite a nightmare.
    Lots of growling, and yowling, and going for the throat, and general
    tearing around the house in a big hissing ball of fur.  When the
    vet suggested the drug, I was skeptical.  I didn't want to have
    to give him a pill every day for the rest of our lives.  What in
    actuallity happened is that I only gave him the pill for a couple
    of weeks.  During that time he was such a sweetie!  Then I slowly
    reduced the dosage, and finally stopped all together.  It seems
    that during that time he forgot how to be hostile or something,
    and I have not had the problem since.

1022.3ovaban...give it a tryITSBIG::VACCARIThu Jan 07 1988 19:528
    Thats funny.... I've been giving McCafferty Ovaban for a skin
    condition.... seems she's allergic to fleas and thats what the vet
    recommended.... I didn't know that it would be good for her demeanor,
    which by the way is excellent.  I only give her 1/2 a tablet maybe
    once a week...
    
    I'd certainly give it try... maybe will help with the other cats
    personality, before I'd give one kitty up.
