Sounds like the perfect job for you.  Hope you get it.

 

[stewball]

Looking forward to hearing that you got the job with a good starting salary.

 

[kitkatkittygirl]

Thank you all so much.
I really hope so too.

Sookie used the litterbox today. I'm still showing Skye.
That makes me so happy!
it's the little things lol

A new little girl came to me yesterday.
A bit sick, not to bad. About 8 weeks or so. Covered in fleas. I'm so mad. We have had 0 issues until now.
Dawn bath was no help.
My husband went and got sentry flea tubes.
He put a q tip amount on all the older kittens, including her. And a whole tube on KitKat.
Now every review I read said it's awful and doesn't work.
I told him to get advantage 2.
But he freaked at the price.
Should I bathe them and get it off?
Anyone ever use this?
He didn't wait for me, he was mad about the fleas.

It's not that all cats/kittens will have issues with it, but keep an eye on the application area, and behavior also.

Extra large dog size advantage 11 will treat everyone many times over.

Each tube is 4.0 mls, which treats 5 full sized adult cats.

Just an fyi~

Just need a 1.0 ml syringe to give appropriate doses.

I'm mad at him lol
But he was freaking about the bugs.
They seem ok so far. I flea combed her for hours last night. After a million came off. Today there was a million more. :/
I'll be going back and getting advantage if this doesn't work well.
Thank you again ♡

Bath her first though before you put the advantage on. Of course I didn't really have to say that did I? :-(

I will of course.
I'll give it a day to work and see how they are.

You'll find that Advantage is very effective and worth the price!

 

[kitkatkittygirl]

I would have got it, but him...he was in shock at the price.

 

[Sarthur2]

I know. It's pricey. You can get a four-pack of Advantage 11 for dogs online from PetMeds.com for about $45. It's the exact same stuff, just more in the tube. One tube will treat several cats. You squeeze it into a cup and use a 1 mL syringe to apply it. A much better bargain if you decide to buy it.

 

[catwoman707]

I stick the tip of a 1 ml syringe right on the tube and draw out the amt I need, works like a charm

 

[Sarthur2]

That's a great tip catwoman707 . That never occurred to me .

@KitKatKittygirl have you consider signing up as a non-profit rescue?  Your expenses would be tax deductible then.

@KitKatKittygirl

I honestly wouldn't know where to start.
I wish I had the means. All these babies. It's adding up cost wise.

 

[catwoman707]

It's not so hard but there's alot involved in getting a non profit 501c3.

What I would do is find yourself a reputable rescue group nearby and sign up as a self foster.

Then they will get their vaccines, microchipped, fixed, tested, dewormed, etc and it won't cost you. They recover the expenses from adoption fees.

Also if/when one of your fosters need medical attention it doesn't cost you either.

I've been looking around.
There seems to be a few very catty groups. They won't let me in the circle.
Someone I know is trying to start a rescue. I'm hanging in waiting for her.

These girls have come such a long way. They are starting to use the litterbox, they play with all the other kittens.
It's a real joy to watch them get better and better.

 

[Sarthur2]

That is great to hear. It must be fun to watch everyone play together .

I always thought it dangerous to use dogs advantage on cats.
