I don’t know if this is the correct forum for my question, if not please let me know. This is a two question post!
Next week my cat has a appointment to get her rabies shot and flea meds at a low cost clinic. I’m excited I discovered this vet because my old vet was expensive! This one has no office fee. Anyway, I’m wondering if they will want to test my cat for heart worms before giving me flea medicine. I’m on a very tight budget..even though they are low cost I’m still being careful. My question is, is it absolutely necessary to test? I know it’s possible for indoor cats to get heart worm but I’d like to schedule that for another time if I’m allowed.
second question- can the vet administer the flea medicine? I know how to do it but honestly I’m so nervous because many years ago my mother made me put dog flea medicine on our cat and she had seizures and nearly died. I’m honestly so scared I’ll screw up! I know I may sound ridiculous. An adult being scared of a few seconds of applying flea meds! I’m most likely going to do it myself but boy I’m nervous lol thanks for reading if you got this far!
