My cat is now a year old & has had worm med once. I purchased Bayer tapeworm med at Pet Smart because that is what they told me to get. My husband said that they need a med for different worms. Is there a worm med I can get without going to a vet? I
Hello. Since you wormed her for the tapeworms, it is a good idea to also worm for roundworms & hookworms. You should be able to easily find this at PetSmart, just look for anything that indicates it has pyrantel pamoate in it & just follow the label directions. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

If you can bathe her I would suggest doing that. Removing what's left of the topical product can be helpful. This medicated shampoo should help. ( https://www.epetstore.co.za/cat-skin-and-coat-care/allermyl-medicated-shampoo ) Also, you can apply a cortisone spray or cream to her skin. You should be able to pick this up at any pharmacy. Hope this helps. Best wishes and Merry Christmas!

Is it ok to get flea and tick plus heartworm medicine from Dr. Foster and smith.com or is it best to go directly through your vet? Why or why not?
Hi and thanks for using Boop by Petco! Good question! In general it is best to purchase these medications from your veterinarian. When purchased through a veterinarian the company will most often guarantee the effectiveness. This is usually not the case with products bought online or over the counter. When sold through a veterinarian the company that manufactures the product will stand behind the product and often pay for medical treatment should the product not work for some reason. The veterinarian also knows how to properly store the product so that it does not get damaged or becomes ineffective. Finally, sometimes over the counter products or products sold online can be counterfeit or even dangerous to use. Your veterinarian also knows what particular products tend to be most effective for your location.

I am moving from Loa Angeles to northern Georgia with my two indoor-only cats, but the area will be forested and screens only provide so much protection from mosquitoes. I am concerned about feline heartworm. What is the best topical preventative a
Love his name! That is awesome! I would recommend Revolution or Advantage Multi. I personally like Advantage Multi better. Any product containing a heartworm prevention is a prescription item so you need to get your vet to either dispense the product or write you a script. I hope this helps. Best of luck with your move!

It is winter time here and my eight week old kitten is absolutely bored in the garage. She isn't allowed in the house but we give her food everyday and she catches mice in the garage. She wants to go out and once she did go out when it was snowing an
If it is cold for you, it is probably cold for her. Just make sure she has a way to get out of the cold by going into the garage or a warm spot outside. You could set up an insulated cat bed by cutting a hole in an ice chest (use google for other diy winter cat beds). You can also play with her throughout the day. Use various toys like a laser pointer, toys on a stick, feather toys, bell toys, etc. Playing in the snow is also a type of stimulation she may enjoy.
