Great -- I could have called 1-800-VET-MEDS.
I remember when I tried to use the cat's ringworm meds on myself. It didn't go away, and my doc about busted a gut laughing at me, because the cat med was way too dilute for a human.
I was in grad school, with no insurance. It SOUNDED logical...

I may or may not have taken one of Kato's tramadol pills when I had a terrible migraine that my regular migraine meds had no effect on.
I've still got Lucy's lidocaine patches.
He doesn't take them on a daily basis any more, because rest and a few months of the rimadyl really helped. Every once in a great while, if we take too long of a walk, he ends up limping hours later, and we give him 1/2 a rimadyl and that usually takes care of it.
Yeah, they are really effective. Hard to watch pets inevitably get older but nice we can make them more comfortable.

You only failed to do the math. It's just mass vs meds. Cats weigh a lot less than people. Easier with dogs because they are much closer to human weight. It's literally the same meds.
My dog and I were both on predisone at the same time years ago. That was "fun".
I came home to a very apologetic note slipped under my door ("I'm truly sorry for disturbing you at that hour and being a total asshole"), including a Starbucks gift card. I hope this concludes my adventures with cranky neighbor.
Now,
that's
an apology.
I am impressed with the fact that the guy is apparently an expert both at being an asshole and at apologizing. You would think that the one would afford the opportunity to practice the other, but so often that practice does not produce expertise.
I do appreciate the frank assessment. And the gift card says:
To: Good Neighbor
From: Bad Neighbor
Sorry for being a jerk
That's a good gift card. I'd be inclined to forgive, if not forget.
It's forgiven. I just don't want him to forget.
Damn, aurelia! That's like storybook apology. Now, he shouldn't be making you miserable in the middle of the night, but given that--way to go to pull it out of the fire. This is the point at which most of the guys at work would say "wife." Because men cannot socially function with adults (read: women).
