I have one cycling to frequently. The 2nd time I caught her early enough to stop cycle. If she doesn’t catch her next cycle she will be spayed in her best interest.

Works great calming down our aggressive cat

Out neutered male cat began acting like he was intact, so the vet prescribed these. We have to split the pills and put them in a pill pockets, but our cat eats them, and it works! Not only is he acting neutered again, he's much less aggressive overall. I'd recommend using a pill splitter, don't try to break them apart by hand.

This has been a lifesaver..

We got our girl Zena spayed, and she still continued to go into heat. We were quite shocked/confused but ultimately fine with that until she was in heat more often

We got our girl Zena spayed, and she still continued to go into heat. We were quite shocked/confused but ultimately fine with that until she was in heat more often than not. It became evident she was miserable, and losing weight quickly from not eating. She was up for days, and didn't want to even be looked at. After many other options failed we tried this medication as a last resort. our vet recommended this medication as a "cat birth control".. we order one tablet, and take it into our vet to be compounded into a cat safe dose which lasts 10 weeks. This has been the best thing we have ever tried. Its been about a month on the medication and Zena is the best she has ever been! She is happy, snuggle, plays with her sister and is gaining weight. Obviously the medication can have side effects but so far we have seen nothing but positive results. So happy to have our Zena girl back! *Also, I had to reach out with questions to chewy a few times and everyone was so helpful.
