My cats have been prescribed Interceptor for heartworms caused by mosquitos. We get them inside our house occasionally - but it only takes one bite. Granted dogs get heartworms more often but vets are seeing an increase in cats. My question is do you think Interceptor is safe for cats?

Don't know if the extreme heat killed them off or what. Now that we are getting some rain, mosquitos are getting to be a problem at dusk and early am so the cats only go out at midday. When we are all out, the mosquitos seem to prefer me to the cats. Found out that my old fashioned lye soap made with Jewelweed cuts the itching down. The heat killed my jewelweed off this year so I am going to make a rain garden for it. Then it will have enuogh moisture to grow good. ---- Beth <[email protected]> wrote: > That would be a lot of baths.And a huge emergency bill for my wounds.
