Best Answer

Baytril belongs to a family of antibiotics called quinolones, which are known to affect the retina (part of the eye) of certain species at very high doses. Cats are one of those species.

The recommended dose for cats is less than 5 mg/kg daily. At that level, research has shown no effect on any body system of cats.

I Have a 1.0ml Syringe and I need to give my Dog 0.6cc and your Cat 0.14cc of Baytril what marking would that be on the syringe?

For your dog you should fill the syringe to the 0.6 mark on the 1.0 mL syringe. For your cat, you should fill the syringe to halfway between the 0.1 and the 0.2 mark - there are probably smaller dashes between 0.1 and 0.2 to help you with this. If you aren't sure, you should ask your veterinarian to show you on the syringe how full to fill it.
