I thought Interceptor was only for dogs and that they haven't developed the cat
type yet. Could you email us the ingredients of the cat type? I'm very
interested because when I'm treating for fleas in the late fall and winter, I
have to wait to be sure there will be 3 days in a row without rain. My outside
cats think they are Gene Kelly, bouncing around to a tune in their head,
"Singing in the Rain". And it's so much easier to give a pill in a spoonful of
ice cream then climb walls and run across the ceiling chasing after that last
cat who does not want his dose of Frontline Plus. In addition, it's almost
impossible to treat my house ferals. I managed to treat one of them on
occasion and the one treated turned around and treated me to a 5" long scratch
on my arm.
Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors
too!

Same thing happened to one of my cats with Revolution. But his fur did not come
back white. It eventually grew back to his normal color. By the way,
Interceptor is a pill for both dogs & cats. I will no longer give topical
applications for treatment.

I GOT rEVOLUTION ONCE AND IT CAUSED THEM TO LOOSE THEIR HAIR AT THE APPLICATION
POINT. THEN THE HAIR CAME BACK IN SNOW WHITE. NOT TOO FOUND OF THAT. VET
AGREED AND WE STOPPED IT.

Well I Googled before & did again. The only thing I can find is that some cats
are more prone to Moxidectin toxicity, which is why you have to be so careful
about dosages.
The Multi formula has meds for fleas - Imidacloprid & heartworm larvae -
Moxidectin
Either way the dog Multi has bit had much effect on my cats this year. I've
heard some people say you should switch products periodically to keep the fleas
from becoming immune to the
meds.

It's been a while since I read that about the dog Multi, however I doubt
they've changed ingredients. I can't remember what ingredient it is in the dog
multi that's bad for cats. I found the info online though so I know it's out
there. Maybe what I read was wrong though. Find out what ingredient is bad
and ask your vet if he knows the dog multi has that ingredient in there and
tell him someone told you it was bad for cats. I'd go back and look it up if I
had time but I've got to get back to work cause the CPAs will be here Monday to
audit the books for my company.

Also - don't get Advantage Multi for Dogs and break it down for cats. Regular
Advantage for dogs is okay to break down for cats but don't use the "Multi."
Some extra ingredient in there is bad news for cats. Obviously the cat "Multi"
is okay.
