Here is some information regarding treating your pet with human meds. There is nothing about Tamiflu for pets, but everything else seems to be fairly common.

Thank-You Albert ... This has been a great help to me. I've worried about being able to treat my pets if they get hurt or a infection of some kind. And I have alot of pets.  I take in strays and find them homes. (I'm my vet's BEST friend) Sometimes they are with me for a long time and end up calling my home thier home. I've found several recipes for making pet food and prep those items. Any info anyone can find for pet food or meds please post.
I thank you and my pets thank you! ------------- Wicker |

The Merck Veterinary Manual is available online. It has a lot of valuable information regarding the treatment of animals. It can also be ordered through your local bookstore.
It would be a valuable reference for your home library, especially during a prolonged disaster when it may be impossible to consult with a veterinarian..

I should also add that they publish books for Human health:
All these books could proove useful in a home library.
Cats are the ultimate narcissists.
You can tell this because of all the time they spend on personal grooming. Dogs aren't like this.

Well thank you Wicker, it's my pleasure.
There's a spanish gentleman who lives down the road from me who has several cats and dogs, and of course they barely have enough money to get by themselves so they are unable to purchase regular pet meds, pet food, etc .... so I try to help them whenever possible. Giving them pet food is one thing, but obtaining pet meds is quite the other story. Since they have no choice but to treat their pets with human meds, I was somewhat forced to look into what meds can work on pets.
Thanks again for the support Wicker, and I'm glad that you found it helpful.
