[Gpdd] [HEALTH] Metatone tonic and other items for your first aid kit.

Dear Penny and the GPDD family,

As Penny mentioned Metatone tonic is great for ailing piggys. Once again 
you can buy it on line from PCP direct. Here is the link.

I would never be without Metatone tonic for myself and my piggys.
So remember from my earlier posts you can buy Cymalon liquid or 
Cystopurin, Cystocalm and Canesten cystitis sachets from PCP direct the 
British on line pharmacy. They also have Daktarin oral gel which every 
cavy owner should have at least one tube of since cavies are very prone 
to oral thrush. Another product I always have in my first aid kit that I 
buy from PCP is Brochlor 1.0% Chloramphenicol eye ointment is for the 
treatment of acute bacterial conjunctivitis. They also sell the 
urinalysis test strips Multistix GP Reagent Strips are for testing urine 
samples for the following: Glucose, Ketone, Specific Gravity, Blood, pH, 
Protein, Nitrite and Leucocytes. Most importantly they sell 2.5% Panacur 
for worming your piggys. Maybe a groups of cavy lovers or a cavy club 
can all pitch in and place an order. It is no different than ordering 
from Amazon.com except the prices are in British pounds and the postage 
is slightly higher.Your package will arrive in the post and there will 
be no duty to pay. But some of the best items that any cavy lover needs 
to have are made by the Brits. Remember the British culture is thousands 
of years older than ours in the USA. They also have 300 years more 
experience with cavies than we do in the USA. Oh and let us not forget 
that the two most famous Rodentologists just happen to be 
British...Peter Gurney and Vedra Stanley-Spatcher. We have a lot to 
learn from our British cousins.

So to convert British pounds to US dollars go to this link

Just remember these products could save your cavies life. So stock up 
now before your cavy gets sick and you are facing a vet that does not 
know what to prescribe or can not get the right medication made for 
days, Or there is 2 feet of snow between you and your car and you have a 
sick cavy and 20 miles to drive to the vets office.

Cheers,

Ann and the Rescued Piggys of Piggyville, Tampa Florida USA.
