Thank you, yes I did read that article prior to posting I just wasn’t sure if there was additional information elsewhere. And yes I do plan on keeping him on a monthly regimen of revolution as that is the protocol I use with my other house animals.
Also, yes he is eating really well now...
Hey guys,
I took in a stray kitten, approximately seven weeks old, on Monday night who was extremely lethargic and riddled with cat lice. He’s a black kitten and the first thing I noticed when I picked him up was and that he was covered in what appeared to be dandruff, until I saw it moving. 🤢...
I’d like to add, we aren’t using this product for flea and tick prevention, although that’s what it’s generally used for. Nor do we have a flea/tick issue. We are only using it to treat mange. Since we only found out about the mange shortly after giving a monthly dose of revolution, we had to...
Wondering if anyone who hasn’t seen this post might be able to give info or has any personal experience with demodex gatoi (mange).
We went with the bravecto treatment. Again, vet said this is “off label” treatment. I can’t find anything online offering information about this. I’m just curious...
Thanks. I think we are going to go the Brevecto route as my vet thinks that’s the best course. I’ve never used Brevecto so I’m currently reading everything I can about it.
Took a yearly fecal in for Mama cat and it came back positive for Demodex Gatoi. Moon’s fecal is negative (she’s had 2 fecal’s in 3 months), however, since Mama is an indoor only cat and Moon has only been with us for 3 months (indoor only now, but prior history is sketchy), I can’t think of...
My vet is stumped. Did a culture on her ears, it did not show yeast but he’s not convinced that it isn’t yeast. So she’s on gentamicin drops. He thinks that maybe all the antibiotics in the past couple of months may have allowed yeast to grow. He said whatever it is, it’s not too bad right now...
I’ve had lots of animals over the years and all have been microchipped. Some brands are more likely to migrate than others. In my personal experience, home again has been the only that has never migrated in any of my pets. Their chips have an “anti migrating” device in them. A couple of our pets...
When my girl stopped eating we offered baby food...plain chicken or turkey with no onion or garlic seasonings. She started eating again right away. Anything to get them to eat. Scrambled eggs, lunch meat...hope your kitty feels better.
Ouch. My boy did that when he had a urinary blockage. I hope that’s not your boys issue. How’s he doing tonight? We’re you able to get him into the vet? I agree that he should be seen asap.
Ok guys. I’ll be calling my vet in the morning to make an appointment but I could really use some advice in the meantime.
Moon has been scratching at her head above her eyes, licking her paws and over grooming that area as well as digging in her ears with her back paws while meowing loudly...
