[Felvtalk] Revolution - thoughts for FeLV?
does anyone use Revolution for their FeLV babies? I don't like any toxic chemicals but wonder what the risks vs benefits might be? I've gotten permission to use (try to!) a shed for Whimsy. I'll put a cage in there initially, but he very likely will not like being confined all the time, so therefore will have some outdoor exposure still. He's had some flea treatment at his vet visits but would be due again. He's still battling ringworm (areas end up healing and new fur grows back) - don't know if that effects using flea/mite treatment. The vet has been amazed he's had no visible fleas or mites but now we are in Spring of course. ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org

I used Revolution. Of the spot on treatments it is supposed to be the least toxic. Plus it protects against more tha fleas, ear nites and heartworms.

It would be safer for him and any other kitties around if you could keep him inside full time. Some of mine were outside full time before I rescued them. They are happy to be inside and no having to dodge cars and predators. -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Emeraldkittee Sent: Friday, April 02, 2010 6:51 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: [Felvtalk] Revolution - thoughts for FeLV? does anyone use Revolution for their FeLV babies?

Re: [Felvtalk] Revolution - thoughts for FeLV?
I use revolution on everyone, but it probably depends on your area of the country,. Heartworms are very prevalent here and one heartworm can kill a cat. As usual cat treatments lag far behind dog treatments.
