| FYI- Never use dog flea med. on CATS! I just wanted to let ya know, I saw on Animal Planet, they rescued a cat, because it was a stray and this woman was feeding it, and she decided to put DOG flea medicine on this cat, well... it went into seizures and almost died, but she called the humane society and they came and saved it. I thought it was interesting,, Im not sure what kind of flea med it was, but I often wondered if when I put on Baileys flea med, I dont use all of it, I thought about using the last few drops on the cat,,,, well Im glad I know, now. Just wanted to let ya know.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Chances are she used a HARTZ products - they are VERY toxic for cats and small dogs too - It's taken many years but they have pulled some products off the market due to the thousands of Deaths - Hartz knew it all along that many pets were dying. I totally boycott ALL Hartz products. |

| We use Advantix on Tatum and Stormie and it says on the package to not use it on cats because it is lethal to them.

| Thanks for the info. I don't have a cat, but it's just a reminder that those meds are very very strong and the label must be followed exactly. I don't use Hartz either.
