  1. I asked my vet, and she said Glucosamine doesn't work that fast. So I
    suspect you told your cat you were giving it G, and it believed you,
    and the placebo effect kicked in. :?)~

    It was the dog, and I agree with your vet, which is why I suspect large
    doses might have anti-inflammatory effects.

    I dunno. All I know is what I saw...

    Feel free to call me a liar. I don't mind. ;-)
    Me and Misty know better.

    I had convinced myself that GS was helping keep my neck from getting
    all creaky. When I went off it eventually my neck got creeky again
    and I thought "oh no, I better go back on". And then I thought "hmmm,
    no let me wait" and the creeking went away on its own. Had I went
    back on I would have sworn it was the GS.

    From now on I attribute all good things to the good and benevolent
    Flying Spaghetti Monster.

    She was a silver-gray Australian shepard mix.
    The color of mist, hence the name "Misty".

    WTF is wrong with that name for a dog???? :-o
