I GOT rEVOLUTION ONCE AND IT CAUSED THEM TO LOOSE THEIR HAIR AT THE APPLICATION POINT. THEN THE HAIR CAME BACK IN SNOW WHITE. NOT TOO FOUND OF THAT. VET AGREED AND WE STOPPED IT.

Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too! ________________________________ From: Beth <create_me_...@yahoo.com> To: FeLV Talk <Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org> Sent: Friday, October 5, 2012 4:06 PM Subject: [Felvtalk] Fw: Flea Products Well I Googled before & did again. The only thing I can find is that some cats are more prone to Moxidectin toxicity, which is why you have to be so careful about dosages. The Multi formula has meds for fleas - Imidacloprid & heartworm larvae - Moxidectin Either way the dog Multi has bit had much effect on my cats this year. I've heard some people say you should switch products periodically to keep the fleas from becoming immune to the meds.

I can't remember what ingredient it is in the dog multi that's bad for cats. I found the info online though so I know it's out there. Maybe what I read was wrong though. Find out what ingredient is bad and ask your vet if he knows the dog multi has that ingredient in there and tell him someone told you it was bad for cats. I'd go back and look it up if I had time but I've got to get back to work cause the CPAs will be here Monday to audit the books for my company. “I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn’t….the pain which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain ________________________________ Date: Fri, 5 Oct 2012 12:56:46 -0700 From: create_me_...@yahoo.com To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Flea Products Oh great!.

Regular Advantage for dogs is okay to break down for cats but don't use the "Multi." Some extra ingredient in there is bad news for cats. Obviously the cat "Multi" is okay. “I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn’t….the pain which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain ________________________________ _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
