    Automatic Litter Box-need Advice

    Hello, all. Thanks again for all the replies! Admittedly, the odor issue is more my fault than how my cat smells from her diet. I'm not as diligent about cleaning the box as I should be, so maybe tgstst what needs to change rather than changing the box. I still say the automatic box seems...

    Automatic Litter Box-need Advice

    Thanks, all. So it seems that most folks so far seem to think an automatic box isn't worth it unless it's one of the very most expensive ones. Is this accurate?

    Automatic Litter Box-need Advice

    As the title suggests, I need advice regarding an automatic Litter box. I'm not new to cats, but I've never had an automatic box, so I'd like suggestions based on the following: cost, ability to hide smell, models to strongly consider, or avoid. I currently keep a non-covered regular box in...

    It's the Seresto collar.

    Bad Reaction To Flea Collar.

    Wow, I'm so glad I caught the problem early. I'm so sorry to hear about what happened to your cat. Please contact Bayer and report this. I was given a full refund, but more importantly, they need to know how serious this issue really is.

    Should I Be Worried?

    Wow, that sounds like it was an ordeal! Fortunately, I don't have a flea issue at this time. I'm just looking for a good flea preventive. It's crazy that you ran into this issue even when using Frontline, though!

    Flea Treatment Options-any Suggestions?

    I haven't. I don't know anything about it to be honest.

    Should I Be Worried?

    Thanks! I'm still working on trying to figure out what to do for a flea preventive now. I have a thread about flea prevention that's gotten only a little attention so far.

    Flea Treatment Options-any Suggestions?

    I'm not sure how likely it is for my dog to pick up a tick, but I know it could happen. So, I'm really just trying to weigh options at this point.

    Flea Treatment Options-any Suggestions?

    Patches is an indoor only cat. However, the dog goes outside. Although he's on Nexguard, it's my understanding that he could pick up a flea or a tick from outside (it just won't hurt him since he's on prevention), and he could transfer it to Patches. I'm up for correction if I'm wrong, though...

    Flea Treatment Options-any Suggestions?

    Hey, all! First, I'm not sure if I have the right section (couldn't decide between here and Cat Health), so I'm hoping for the best. I'm wondering if folks have any suggestions for flea prevention. Long story short, my Patches had a reaction (lethargic and loss of appetite) after wearing a...

    Should I Be Worried?

    Thank you! I'm glad she's doing ok, too. If I can make people aware of a danger that seems to be very real, I'm happy. I caught this in less than 10 hours. What I've described above seems pretty extreme for such a short period. I can't imagine what may have happened if the collar was on for longer.

    Should I Be Worried?

    Yes, I wouldn't use it! A simple Google search for Seresto collar reviews suggests it's mostly a good product that most people recommend (what I searched before use). However, a simple Google search for adverse reaction to Seresto collar paints a very different picture (what I searched after the...

    Seresto flea collar side effects?

    Further evidence that my experience really was the Seresto collar: Patches is completely back to her playful, active self this morning, plus her appetite is back.

    Should I Be Worried?

    Further evidence that the extreme lethargy really was due to the Seresto collar: this morning, Patches is back to her playful, active self this morning, and her appetite is back.

    Should I Be Worried?

    Yes, I'll stick to other flavors, and if I see no more diarrhea, I suppose I'll consider that maybe that was it. No, I didn't notice irritation, but I did notice extreme lethargy. I put the collar on just before I left for work. By the time I returned home, she was laying on the couch, and she...

    Should I Be Worried?

    It didn't, no. The only thing that I think could've been it was the FVRCP, but that's something else. I'll have to take a better look at the paperwork she came with to see if maybe it's on there. For now, should I not feed that canned flavor? I've only fed her one brand, and I have to imagine...
