Cat Advantage What is the advantage of being a Cat 7 rather than a Cat 6 ?
I looked at what is required to move up in categories on here the other day and found that cat 6 and cat 7 where the highest categories available. What is the advantage of being a Cat 7 rather than a Cat 6 ? Both cat's have the same number of answers, questions and comments per day, as well as same amount of stars, ratings and votes. Apart from cat 7 having more points gained on Yahoo! Answers, is there any difference between the two categories and if so, what is it and what is the big effect of it ???
Apart from the Kudos, none whatsoever. Likewise having an Orange Top Contributor's badge is worthless (in fact trying to avoid one as a Level 6 is more fun).
Cat Care: Fleas & Parasites : Frontline vs. Advantage for Cats
Hi there - I have two cats just under a year old and brother and sister. I suspect a flea or two and was considering using Advantage because I had good results with previous cats. . These two groom each other a lot, so I was hesitating. Normally the back of the neck doesn't get licked, but with these two they are pretty thorough. Could I safely use it? Thanks.........
Advantage is my preferred flea treatment. It's very safe and effective! Although, I would advise doing the cats in separate rooms and not letting them interact until the product has dried on both of them.
Cat Advantage Advantage Flea, Can I give my small cat half of the large cat dose?
I have 3 advantage flea control doses left. They are labeled for "Cats and kittens 8 weeks and older and over 9 pounds". One of my cats is rather large and over 9 pounds, while my other cat is much smaller (maybe 4/5 pounds). Can I give the smaller cat just half the tube of advantage?
For a bigger cat, do the just give you more medicine or is that the medicine is stronger?
no , bcuz it could kill ur kitty . and it would be too strong !! u may need to use "revolution " iTs the same thing as frontline.. they have one that is for 0-5 lbs. and that would be perfect for the smaller cat !! u should call a local vet for all these questions to be on the safe side!!!
Every cat owner knows that it is their responsibility to give their cat the right nutrition for them to grow fit and healthy. A well balanced cat diet contains all the necessary nutrients such as carbohydrates, fat, and protein. You can check out the pet food section of your local grocery for the different types of cat food commercially available to the public. Cat food comes in different forms: in cans, dried or dehydrated, and semi-moist.
Another option to consider is making your own cat food. How hard can it be? The preparation of cat food at home may consume a lot of time and be quite difficult to have all the ingredients needed to have a complete meal and complete set of nutrients. There are several cat food recipes available in the Internet which you can easily download. If you are quite adept in cooking, you may try your hand in making it.
Some cat owners prefer making their own cat food to be able to ensure its safety and nutritional value, especially in the light of information that several brands of cat food are being recalled due to the presence of harmful chemicals and harmful bacteria. These substances may make your cats sick and may even lead to its death.
Another advantage of preparing your own cat food is that it costs less expensive that the commercially available ones. Just make sure that you do not sacrifice the nutritional content of the cat food you prepare just for the sake of saving money. Additional research may be needed to find the exact amount of nutrient needed by your cat according to age and size. Also take note that the dietary requirements of a kitten differs greatly from what a full-grown cat needs. Be knowledgeable enough on what ingredients can cause adverse effects on the health of your cat.
Some ingredients that are harmless to humans may be harmful to your cats such as certain root crops like onion and garlic. They contain substances that may harm the cells of the blood of cats. So always be sure that the ingredients of your homemade cat food will not harm your cat.
If your cat was initially introduced to commercially prepared cat food, there might be some resistance when you try to shift to homemade cat food especially if they are quite picky eaters. A lot of patience and time may be needed to get them to try out the food you prepared and have them constantly eat it. Do not get disheartened if your cat doesn’t want to eat the food you prepared for him. It is not your cooking. It is more of them being wary of new things, especially new food. Try to observe the response of your cat to the food, if it is with enthusiasm or with indifference. An effective trick may be to mix the new food with their old food to introduce the new taste to your cat. Once they get to know the taste, they will in time eat the food you prepared for them.
A drawback with home prepared cat food is the complicatedness of its preparation as well as the time needed to prepare it. To reduce these hassles, you can make a month’s supply of cat food and get portions from it for your cat’s daily intake.
Data is also found on which supplements may be mixed with your recipe to make sure that the meal you prepare contains the right proportion of nutrients. It may be easier to just get a commercially prepared cat food but its reliability may be in question since some may have components that may cause an allergic reaction to occur on your cat.
Preparing your own cat food will not only save you money but will ensure the safety of your cat. You can ask your veterinarian or go online for recipes and other information on a well balanced meal for you cat.
Cat Advantage How much does Advantage Flea Cat Medicine cost?
I put more info on this other page that i just posted like 12 minutes ago.
but does anyone know?!?
** i posted this new page in case people dont wanna be reading a long question.
Usually about 30-40 dollars for a 4 month supply. Be sure to get one specifically for cats and for your cat's age and weight. And unfortunately, penny pinching in this situation can be fatal. Many of the cheaper products like Bio Spot, and Hartz can kill a cat even though they supposedly are for that correct weight. All flea products contain the chemical pyrethroids or pyrethrins and cats are very sensitive to this and need a very low dose. This is why the cheaper brands or using a dog product on a cat can harm them. They will have seizures, shock or die. If your cat has minor symptoms such as lethargy, vomiting, diarrhea, bathe your cat with Dawn soap and take them to your vet. If your cat experiences the other, seek veterinarian attention immedietly.
Cat Care: Fleas & Parasites : Is Advantage Bad for Cats?
How long do I have to wait to put Advantage on my cat since I put Frontline on it 2 and 1/2 weeks ago?
I put Frontline on my cat about 2 and 1/2 weeks ago and it didn't help with the fleas. I bought some Advantage but I don't know how much longer I have to wait to put it on. Any answers?
