There is prozac for kitties?! How did you know he needed it?

Omg, you have the cutest kitties.
Thank you very much! They are back at their respective posts tonight, towel pile & pillow.

The prozac I give him is in liquid form. I get it compounded at a compounding pharmacy & it's vanilla butternut flavor. (He's on another med as well that is the same flavor; he seems to really like it.)

When he was about 2 months old or so he started attacking my hands/feet & ankles, as in latch on and not let go. He would draw blood. It was getting pretty bad, so his vet recommended the prozac. It seemed to make him much more comfortable and he stopped attacking me in the same way. He can still be a bit bitey (much less intense), and I know his "triggers" now. I have been able to lower the prozac dose over the years as well (he's 6 now).
