- I've had two different cats on prednisone. The first probably died
- because she was weaned off of it by a vet who insisted it was bad
- for her. A later vet, with the second cat, told me that they've
- known for at least 10 years (which covered the time in which the
- first died) that prednisone is not nearly as hard on cats as it is
- on people or even dogs. So, if your cat needs prednisone, give it
- to him/her. It might just keep your baby alive.
