Convenia? Also, taking a cat's pulse

This is further to my question regarding care for my cat Cherry, 16 year old, FIV positive and also with hyperthyroidism. We stopped the Clavamox and her appetite returned and she is drinking more too. Thanks again for the advice.

I called the vet's office to let them she'd begun eating again. I asked what options there were for antibiotics for cats. The person I spoke to mentioned Convenia, an injected antibiotic which provides coverage for two weeks. Given our experience with Clavamox, I asked how well cats generally tolerate this med and was told that they hadn't experienced any problems.

May I please ask if others feel this is a good option? Given how ill my cat is, I am very cautious, especially after her recent experience with the Clavamox.
Thank you in advance, catnbudge
