Hi there! It’s completely understandable to feel a bit nervous about giving medication to your furry friend, especially if it's for several days. Onsior is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation in cats, particularly after surgery or if they have a condition like arthritis. It’s specifically designed for cats, which means it tends to be safer for them compared to other NSAIDs.
Side effects can occasionally occur, so keep an eye on your cat for any signs of digestive upset, like vomiting or diarrhea, or more serious symptoms like lack of appetite or changes in behavior. Ensure your cat stays well-hydrated and perhaps try giving the medication with a small amount of food to minimize stomach upset.
It's also crucial to monitor for any unusual symptoms such as jaundice (yellowing of the gums or eyes), increased thirst, or urination changes. These could signal a more severe reaction, and you’d want to reach out to a vet right away.
If you're still feeling uneasy, or if you notice any concerning signs, it might be helpful to have a video consult with one of our veterinarians here at Dial A Vet. We're here to support you and Paws every step of the way.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
