Can I give my dog pain meds that were originally meant for my cat?

I would not recommend giving your dog pain medications that were prescribed for your cat. Typically cats and dogs can process medications differently. It might be a medication that dogs cannot take safely or does not work well. Also the dose will not be the same. IF you feel Sixx is painful I would recommend taking him to a vet to get proper pain medication. I hope that helps
