Default I'm the worse daddy in the world!

This morning I decided it had been long enough and it was time to dose
the Fantastic Seven (TM) with Revolution (a topical medication for
fleas, ticks, worms, and all kinds of parasites). I got the seven vials
and put them in my pocket. Fez and Rufous took it and didn't even notice
it! Such good boys... we'll see if they act the same way next month.
Xoxo didn't seem to care until he actually felt the liquid, then he jump
and ran away. Basho and Luna were still unaware of my treachery 'cuz
they didn't run from me until after they had been dosed. However, Issa
and Maya recognized the smell and ran for their lives!
It took me a while to catch them, Tom had to help with Issa because he
got really angry, clawing and yowling. Maya just would not get close to
me. I finally caught her off-guard and dosed her. She ran away and gave
me the baddest death look ever.
I'm such a bad daddy this morning...

Holly and Duffy don't object to Advantage (and it is very rare when I need
to use it ...usually after I have had visitors who apparently imported some
fleas). I haven't tried Frontline. I tried Revolution just once, and both
cats had an immediate reaction. Holly hated it, but Duffy literally jumped
straight up in the air at least 2 feet and then ran desperately around the
room like a maniac. I was really frightened for him. He is blind, and he
ran into several walls and objects in his mad dash. I finally was able to
catch him and soothe him. Never again! I asked at the vet clinic, and they
said some cats do have this reaction to Revolution. It is an "all-purpose"
product, and I am now suspicious of the number of components in it.

Sounds familiar. I can usually get one treated, but better have all the
others confined first or I'd never catch them.

One way we save with the vets blessing, (we use advantage).

The dog and cat treatments are the same drug at the same concentration. So
be buy the largest size and the vet gives us a syringe to measure out the
individual doses. And I dose slightly under what is recommended and it has
always worked just fine. One St Bernard size vial treats my poodle, two
cats and my daughters cats as well.

Think of the reaction if you had to chase them with flea SPRAY! Eegads the
horror! You would truly be a bad evil daddy then! They should be thanking
their lucky stars they only get treated once a month - imagine chasing them
down weekly!

I do exactly the same thing, also with Advantage. That big size, 4 ml I
think, will dose 5 cats at .8 ml each. And one large tube costs me US $13
at the vet, whereas a package of 4 medium-cat-sized ones costs $30!!

Jo, what do you do about the fact that the liquid removes the paint from
the syringe? After one dosing, I can't see where the .8 mark is anymore.
Finally, I put a strip of masking tape around a new syringe at that level
while the markings were still on it, so I could still see how much was the
right amount after the paint came off. Kind of makes you wonder about
putting something on your cat that dissolves paint!!
