I agree with Otto - the general public is clueless about a lot of things - not just flea meds. Better to err on the safe side and tell them NO to any dog products to be used on cats then to have even more problems.

I don't see it that way. This is not about baby formula.Originally Posted by catsallaround
I have seen people mix baby formula wrong maybe we should try to ban powder to(personally I am for breast feeding but things happen/adoptions/health reasons/whatever)

My point, exactly. People don't read labels properly. They just don't.Originally Posted by catsallaround
Anything can be messed up if you try(dont try). I had someone ask me about fleas told them to use advantage(2 cats) she did already she told me. She split a tube of large cat bough in petsmart then the next day gave them their own tube of large cat each. so really they both had 1.2 ml when .8 would have done it. no idea the reasoning behind what she did but hey it was the cat dose.
Then everything should be banned. It's dangerous. We might hurt ourselves. We're too dumb to read labels. Maybe if Americans weren't nanny-ed to death and pretty much told that they're too dumb to take care of themselves or their children or pets, they might actually take responsibility for themselves and read the labels.Originally Posted by otto

That's just silly. Meaning no disrespect but you are over dramatizing. There has to be boundaries in everything. It's just the way life is. The dog doses are labeled for use on dogs, and safe if used as directed. The cat doses are labeled for use on cats, and are safe if used as directed. It's done that way for a reason. For the safety of the animals.Originally Posted by Willowy
