Hi all-- This I think is more of a question for the vets. On the Petromalt label, it says that the product is not to be given with food or at mealtimes. How seriously should I take this? Will food in the stomach prevent it from working? Should I take away Amelia's food after I give her some Petromalt? What I often see happening is that I'll give her some Petromalt when I see that she isn't eating, but the taste of the treat will prompt her to eat more. She somehow gained access to my husband's desk, which contained the eraser stash, so she's getting plenty o' Petromalt right now. Thanks for help, Regina and Amelia (a pink eraser, a yellow eraser, a white eraser, a grey eraser... bonanza!) [Posted in FML issue 1281]
