Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / August 2005NEED FRONTLINE (flea stuff) DOSAGE AMOUNTS
HI We're looking after a BUNCH of cats at farm and want to treat them with FRONTLINE PLUS to control fleas and ticks. Since we have to treat a BUNCH of cats I guess it's cheaper to just buy a LARGE DOG DOSE. But I need the size of a cat dose (I think I read 5ml) ALSO does anyone know the amount in a LARGE DOG DOSE so I can figure out the cost Vs. buying it individualy?? ONE MORE THING if anyone would happen to know the dose amount in CC's vs MLs I would appreciate it as we have ways to accuratly make the cat dose but ONLY in CC's Please just post to group or if emailing REMOVE, REMOVE from email address. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP Kim circa Mon, 28 Jun 2004 09:28:20 -0400, in rec.pets.cats.health+behav, Kimmy (helpthecutekitties@REMOVEyahoo.com) said, > ONE MORE THING if anyone would happen to know the dose > amount in CC's vs MLs I would appreciate it as we have ways > to accuratly make the cat dose but ONLY in CC's 1cc = 1ml.

Can't help you with the dosages, but ml's [mililiters]and cc's [cubic centemeters] are one and the same. They are equivilent. One equals the other. 1 ml = 1 cc. :-) Redundant bill n Don't use FRONTLINE Dog on cats..You can use Advantage large dog(blue)fleas only on cats..its .4ml under 10 pounds and 1mil for over 10 pounds. Leslie "you can tell alot about a people or person in how they treat animals" ????? in some other posts a month back people said it was OK to use dog dose and split it up. And company rep said it was OK. and I asked a vet and they said it was OK?? SOOOOOOO what's the truth??? THANKS people who said 1cc = 1ml Kim >Don't use FRONTLINE Dog on cats..You can use Advantage large dog(blue)fleas >only on cats..its .4ml under 10 pounds and 1mil for over 10 pounds.

And company rep said it was OK. > and I asked a vet and they said it was OK?? I'd take my veterinarians' advice over something on the Internet. Was it your vet who you asked, or somebody in a newsgroup who claimed to be a veterinarian? Not that people claiming to be vets *aren't*, but with Usenet, you never really know to whom you are speaking. If you haven't asked your own vet, do so, but AIUI, what you were told is correct. However, IANAV!

According to medi-vet.com, the cat Frontline has 9.8% Fipronil and 11.8% S-methoprene, whereas the dog flavour has 9.8% and 8.8% respectively. So, using dog gunk on your cat will be fine, and - all else being equal -conservative, indeed.

OK, SO WHAT HAPPENS IF I USE FRONTLINE DOG PLUS ON A CAT? >> ????? >> in some other posts a month back people said it was OK [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > >-L. > HI > We're looking after a BUNCH of cats at farm and want to treat them [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Kim you can order it at http://www.healthypets.com they seem OK but I have only used them once. |
