How much do you give each cat? We've got multiple cats and it says you can mix it with food but how do we give them the DE to make sure they get their dosage? We're afraid if we just mix it in with the food then one would get too much, not enough, etc. Thanks!!

I know you can with the large dog regular advantage because that's what we currently do. But the dog shelter I work at uses Ovitrol and it's cheaper than advantage so I'm wondering if it's OK to use the large dog Ovitrol on cats with the same breakdown: =.08. What do you guys think?

Thanks!! Unfortunately we don't have a way to expand the enclosure but we've decided to convert our old 10.5x10.5 shed into a huge cat house. We've got to renovate it a little first but when we're done it'll be decked out. Plus it's already been wired so we can have lights and a heater/fan in...

We've got a huge 18x50 enclosure built. It's roughly about 900 sq ft. We built it about 5 yrs ago and have had nonstop problems. We are now at a point where we can renovate/update it. The ground is nothing but grass and dirt so it's always messy. The roof is just wire (except for an enclosed...

What kind of dewormer would work best in bulk that would treat tapeworms? This is the main problem we have around flea season. I'll do some looking into coupons & price matching and see what deals I can score

I've tried that before & all he did was jerk his head away & then spit the food back out but I'll try again. What about getting some gerber chicken baby food? would the stronger smell of that be a little more enticing? also, and this is a little off subject, but how do you wean kittens off of...

I found the pedialyte & have given him 2 rounds of it--3 ccs each. He is perkier. He's standing up in the crate we've had him in all day & he's whining. I let him out & put him in the area of the house we have sectioned off with his siblings & he actually trotted & was very alert. I opened up 2...

the clavamox is for a bad case of upper. he told me to use gatorade because he said it replenishes better than pedialyte but i've always used pedialyte in the past--the unflavored kind. you think i should get pedialyte instead? and think i need to go longer in between the fluids or stick with...

I took one of my kittens to the vet today & he dewormed him with strongid & sent me home with some clavamox to give him 2x a day. He also said to give him 15 ccs of gatorade every 15 minutes. I've been doing that for the last few hours & now he's got the squirts. Is this normal with what I'm...

I'll try that. The last time I saw him eat the wet food was a couple days ago but he could be eating the dry and I just don't know it because we leave food out 24/7 and the cats just graze all day and he could be eating that when I'm at work or asleep.

Our little Skittles isn't feeling very good. We rescued him when he was about 4 weeks old & he's now about 4 months old. He's always been a strong eater. He was strictly eating dry food until we started feeding 2 younger kittens wet food & I would give him a little bit out of the can to eat. He...

Thank you Asher.  I only knew her for 2 1/2 days but I miss her so much. I feel weird not having to get up every 2 hours to feed her so I'm having a hard time falling asleep. Felt like I was forgetting about her by laying down to go to sleep. I've bottle raised dozens of kittens but it's been a...

Just wanted to let everyone know that we lost Pumpkin I feel like I should have done more for her. And I feel like I shouldn't have taken her to the vet because she went downhill after that

That's what I was thinking with the KMR & I'll pick some up tomorrow.  The vet is actually who recommended the gatorade. He said that pedialyte doesn't replenish the electrolytes as well as the gatorade. But I'll grab some pedialyte tomorrow as well & put her on that. We weighed her the 1st day...

We took in a sick 3-4 wk old kitten this past Saturday. She was covered in fleas--belly was completely black, eyes matted shut, nose crusted over from snot, dehydrated, weak. Just in bad shape. I've been syringe feeding her goat milk & gatorade every 2-3 hours as well as giving her a little karo...

Thank you!! We will be vaccinating them tomorrow. Appreciate it & I will let you know how it goes! :D
